justgiving.com/page/simon-wad… These amazing people help during one of the most frightening points of your life. Not all angels have wings some work in hospitals.

Longest ride this year, getting the miles in in preparation for the London to Brighton in September for Epsom Cardiac Rehab unit, these people change my life immeasurably. Not all angels have wings some work in hospitals. Check out my ride on Strava: strava.app.link/Je8z5D3ft2b

@sophiearumble Take them all to Reigate park, its a beautiful day and they can burn off all their energy, send them home shattered, the parents will thank you

Rachel Reeves has managed the impossible: she’s finally found a tax so vindictive it can make the heir to JCB – a symbol of British manufacturing since 1945 – talk openly about taking his family firm and leaving Britain altogether. When your “growth strategy” is so hostile that one of the country’s biggest employers says it would be easier to become an American business than stay under your inheritance‑tax raid, you’re not governing – you’re liquidating the productive middle of the economy to feed an insatiable Treasury. Labour promised to make Britain a safe home for investment; instead Reeves is sending a very simple message to every family business and manufacturer: build it here, and when you try to pass it on, the Chancellor will turn up like an executor with a crowbar.

Racing network - please share, thank you.

@20th_Centurygal Led Zeppelin Celebration Day 2007

You’ve got one last concert in your life...Who’s on stage? Past or present, your choice.

@jasonbarber91 Impressive, well done.

Most who have me me know I’m a big guy tall and big But I was so uncomfortable in myself.. Especially my damaged knees.. 10 weeks I’ve lost 2& half stone 😁 My knees feel better too

Tomorrow I'm meeting the ambulance crew that helped to save my life last August, its really important to me to say thank you, although that doesn't feel like nearly enough, getting emotional already.

Liking someone and being pretty sure they don't feel the same way is one of the shittest feelings ever.

@sophiearumble Its meant to be, the Surrey Hills are banging in the sunshine

@justchristwo Fun is the best way to describe it

Iconic and desirable, or just weird and confused?

@bonkerssteve Sometimes when you write things down or say them out loud things don't seem quite so bad so fill ya boots bud and to the haters, fuck em!

Apologies if my page seems doom and gloom sometimes it's just me rolling my thoughts out, hopefully they ring true with some and it helps them not feel like they are alone! To the rest i don't mean to bring you too my level so I throw up some funnies to keep you amused 🖤

@HJB_News__ He's a cunt

So let me get this straight. Keir Starmer personally visited Peacehaven mosque where they had the porch set on fire and gave them another £10 million to keep their Muslim community safe. But in north London in a Jewish community ambulances were set on fire by Pakistani Muslims right next to a synagogue. This looked far more severe than Peacehaven. Why didn’t Keir Starmer visit the north London synagogue next to where the ambulances were set on fire, isn’t his wife Jewish? I’m very confused!

On this day in 1964 The Beatles became the only band in history to hold the top 5 spots on the Billboard Hot 100 all at the same time. 1️⃣ Can’t Buy Me Love 2️⃣ Twist and Shout 3️⃣ She Loves You 4️⃣ I Want to Hold Your Hand 5️⃣ Please Please Me A defining moment in rock n' roll history...🎶🎸

@Mr_Husky1 The world needs more people like him, such a kind soul.

George Michael died in his sleep on Christmas Day 2016. The world mourned the voice, the music, the icon. Then something unusual happened. In the days that followed, ordinary people began to speak — not celebrities or publicists, but volunteers, charity workers, waitresses, and strangers who had quietly carried a secret for years. One by one, they stepped forward to describe the same man: someone who had spent decades giving away millions of pounds in near-total secrecy, and who had actively fought against anyone finding out. A woman appeared on the TV game show Deal or No Deal and mentioned she needed £15,000 for IVF treatment. George Michael was watching. The next day, he quietly phoned and paid the full amount. She didn't know who her donor was. She only found out after his death, when the story broke online. A volunteer at a London homeless shelter noticed a familiar face one evening — serving food, cleaning tables, blending in. It was George Michael. He had asked the staff not to tell anyone he was there. He came back more than once. "I've never told anyone," the volunteer later posted. "He asked we didn't. That's who he was." Every Easter, DJ Mick Brown would run a charity appeal at Capital Radio for Help A London Child. Every year, without fail, a call would come in at 3:30 in the afternoon. A £100,000 donation. No fuss. No publicity. George would give and hang up. After his mother died, he organized a private concert — entirely unannounced — for the NHS nurses who had cared for her. It was not filmed. It was not advertised. It was simply a thank you, offered directly to the hands that had shown kindness when fame could offer none. He donated royalties from "Jesus to a Child" to children's charities for years. The Terrence Higgins Trust, which he supported for decades, confirmed he gave generously and consistently — insisting his name never appear in any fundraising materials. Childline's founder later revealed he had donated millions, entirely anonymously, over the course of his life. He struggled, too. Publicly and painfully. Addiction. Loss. The relentless scrutiny of fame. But those who knew him said the struggles never hardened him. If anything, they deepened his understanding of what it means to need help — and to receive it without strings. In 1999, a journalist managed to get him to comment on the rumors of his giving. He said simply: "I really don't like to talk about the amount I've given to charity over the years. I know it's very substantial. I don't exactly know what it is, and I don't really like to linger on it." After his death, the full shape of what he had done became visible — not because he wanted it known, but because the people he had helped could no longer stay silent. Patients who received care. Students who stayed in school. Families who kept their homes. Children whose charities kept their doors open. George Michael understood something about kindness that most of us only glimpse: that it loses something the moment it starts seeking applause. He gave without witnesses. The world found out anyway. And maybe that's exactly as it should be.
