An amazing achievement and he says that while people keep giving he'll keep going,so more to come yet it seems.
-
Wow! Doubled since yesterday :o That guy will keep the NHS going on his own :y
-
Now up to £5 million !
-
He's actually only 22 & his girlfriend is an incredible make up artist..😄
But in all seriousness well done to the old soldier.

I just hope he actually gets all the money "promised" .. as many of these are "pledges" and not actual cash .....

That's not how Just Giving works .... the total only goes up when you have added your cash via PayPal/credit card etc

Who the hell will administer such a sum ? :o

NHS managers, of course. They can spend it on conferences to debate who should/shouldn't get a share of the money.
-

he could blow it on hookers (dressed as sexy nurses) and non prescription drugs that he can't get on the NHS
well done to him though :)

£6.2million .... :y

It will end up going to the chinless wonders who have done sweet FA during these troubled times, nice buffet lunches though.

I've already said it will go on conferences. If you start throwing in buffet lunches as well, they will probably need about £10 million. ;D
-
a national monument with a list of all the NHS and social care staff who continued to work and sadly died after catching Chinese Virus perhaps :-\
-
Nearly at £7.5 million.

Doubt it. They're now saying that cows milk isn't good for you, so Thatcher the Milk Snatcher was way ahead of her time! :)

Bloody right too. Why should someone who hasn't got kids, or whose kids have grown up, pay for milk for someone elses kids. If you cant afford to buy milk for your own kids, either work harder or don't have them.
-
Well, there's that... ;D

It's only being so cheerful that keeps him going ;D

That was one of my old Mums favourite sayings about my Dad. The apple didn't fall far from the tree.
Im not much of a believer in big Government and its bloated welfare state. In case anyone hadn't noticed.
-
Absolutely.
:-X
-
Come on then Andy. Why should I pay for milk for someone elses kids ?

£10 000 000!!!!! :y :y :y :y :y

Buffet lunches now on & perhaps a Christmas party
£12,000,000

I think a payment to the families of NHS workers who've contracted it on the front line and died would be a good use of some of the fund :(
-
unfortunately , whilst 12 million sounds like a lot ,if you start making individual payments to families of NHS and social care who have died in the line of duty , including ongoing (sadly many more will die ) 12 mill won't go far
food companies like deliveroo etc are getting customers to donate meals etc
using the fund to try and buy PPE would just increase profit for the sellers , there is only so much about .
hence my suggestion to use some for a national memorial ,which , if greedy people where excluded from being involved , would not cost much :-\

I think he should decide how it’s spent himself,....he earned it🏆💰
-
Whatever is decided, and however the money is spent, those who don't get their hands on any of it will whinge and moan ..... I forsee a number of begging bowls being proffered, with or without any justification ..... there are a large number of oportunists just waiting to pounce... which is a great shame considering his noble reasons for the undertaking, which will probably be lost in the scirmish.
Well done Sir, you have my respect.
-
£14,000,000 now hospital administrators can't wait to get their grubby little mitts on it , the main reason SWMBO & myself left the NHS years ago, top heavy with "finance experts". It's a damn shame but we'll done Old Soldier.

There is now, quite rightly, calls for this great gentleman to be knighted:

If anyone should be called "Sir" it is surely him, a real hero! 8) 8) :-* :-* ;)

would be a terrible shame after raising so much money ,plus support for the NHS

Apparently this started because of a family joke and his aim was to raise £100 with the possible hope that he'd raise £1,000.Last I heard[this morning] it was at 17.25m so has probably gone way beyond that by now.

The old boy should just keep walking until the money stops coming in.
Who knows where it will end. :y
