Hello mate
I'm hoping you maybe able to assist
I'm head of maintenance at a care home in Devon and I have a resident who turns 100 this year
He's ex tankie and doesn't have his medal that he earned
A colleague and I are busy sorting that and have applied for it.
We took him to the local rememberance last year which was his first actual trip outside the home in years.

28/9/44 to 9/1/48
War medal 39/45
Rather than just handing over his medal once it arrives I'm trying to find someone of seniority in his cap badge that could present it?
He's a good bloke and we'd like to look after him

We are asking anyone who may have information to help the police investigation to please come forward.

I'd rather watch ten Toms than one Amber. I won't be voting for her ever. #StrictlyComeDancing

“No one is born hating another person because of the colour of his skin, or his background, or his religion. People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite.”

Just spent the best (or worst) part of two hours trying to get someone sent to sort out my mother's heating and hot water, which she has been without since a failed attempt by @UtilitiesWareho to fit a smart meter over two weeks ago.
Can't sleep again tonight because the pillows are so awful @warbrookhouse so I'm lying here listening to Tawny owls.
Dear @TravelodgeUK you have the most uncomfortable pillows that I have ever encountered in an hotel.
