WEP 898 Posted December 6, 2020 Just watching a review show for 2020 on German television. Moore was announced as guest by video stream. But a moment before the interview, it was announced that he was unwell and his daughter spoke instead. She said, he has closed his eyes. The host ask her to tell him greetings, in case he wakes up tomorrow! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Captain Sir Tom Moore wins Helen Rollason Award at Sports Personality of the Year 2020 - BBC Sport The award is for 'Outstanding achievement in the face of adversity'. I imagine it's been terribly difficult having a number 1 single, being promoted to colonel, being knighted by the Queen and launching a line of gin. Like @Deathrace I'm also wondering if walking up and down your garden classifies as a sport and if it does, where can I sign up? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
