The deadline for the grifters family to lodge an appeal against the demolition of the St Captain Sir Field Marshal Sir Captain Sir Tom Tom Ground Control to Major Tom Memorial Paddling Pool has passed. Unclear if they have bothered or not: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-beds-bucks-herts-67761441

 

As it turns out, they haven't, and the spa must be demolished by 8th February.

 

I propose a sponsored walk around the rubble.

Trending joke: Captain Tom's daughter, Baroness (for the moment) Mone & Meghan Markle have founded a new pop group: The Grifters.

If you'd like to donate to their cause don't forget to tick the box labelled "grift aid".

Is it a bird? Is it a plane? Nope, it’s fucking flying hot tub.

An MBE even, missed opportunity on here, it seems.

Ena Collymore-Woodstock who had photos with Captain Tom during his last trip is still going at almost 107.

And there's still "Ghana's Tom Moore" Joseph Ashitey Hammond, 99 and even has an active twitter account.

That's the family selling up the site of Tom's martyrdom. I suppose they've got to make back what they sunk into the spa somehow!

Rightmove if you fancy having a nose. Doubt they'll get £2.25m.

I don't like it. Strangely institutional look to the exterior, rambling extensions, mismatched windows. Interior is somewhat bland.
