@Moonpenny He's just come back from abroad Barbados I believe he was still living life to the full.

@senghenydd
I believe so. He's a remarkable man.

@Moonpenny Yes that certainly sums Sir Tom - Capt Tom up to a Tee "Remarkable"
MoonpennyF
@senghenydd And a real gentleman...

@Moonpenny He's got our respect I can't help wondering why did he take that trip abroad at his age anyway hope he pulls through.
MoonpennyF
@senghenydd Maybe it was a final wish of his and it will probably be the last holiday they'll have as a whole family.
No doubt they were upgraded to 1st class 馃榿

@Moonpenny He's been admitted to Bedford Hospital with Covid - 19 and is being treated for Pneumonia Pneumonia at his age it's very very serious.
MoonpennyF
@senghenydd Yes, I heard it on the news last night. He couldn't have his jab because of the pneumonia.

@Moonpenny Now I didn't know that he missed the vaccine it wasn't mentioned on Radio Wales this is what happens when (1) you miss the vaccine and (2) you don't take care.
MoonpennyF
@senghenydd Exactly!

@Moonpenny I walked my two dogs they were Mother and Daughter over a period of twenty years (I don't have dogs nowadays) during that time I caught pneumonia twice the first occasion it was touch and go whether I survived and I was a much younger man than Sir Tom Captain Tom.

@senghenydd probably took the trip because of his age....

@senghenydd My mother had it when she was fairly young. That was a worrying time.
Let's hope he pulls through ok.

@Moonpenny With my experience of pnuemonia I don't like his chances sorry to say.
senghenyddM
@TheSirfurryanimalWales Yes I think Moonpenny said that was well he new the risks.
MoonpennyF
@senghenydd Well, if the w9rst comes to the worst, he's had a hell of a life.
Let's look on the bright side!

@TheSirfurryanimalWales British Airways provided Captain Tom and his family a free holiday because they were flying planes with empty seats and Captain Tom accepted a free holiday for his family very very sad indeed.
