Brighton and Hove police had tweeted: "90 year old veteran reported missing from care home. Turns out they'd said no to him going to #DDay70 but he went anyway #fightingspirit"

That made me chuckle. Credit to the bloke and the way he "stuck two fingers up "those who didn't want him to go. 😀

It's a brilliant story and you should ignore those who want to spoil it by pointing out that the residential care home had merely told him that they not been able to get him onto an organised coach trip, when the version which claims that he was being held illegally against his will is so much more fun.

If it's all made up ernie I'd like to add to the legend by guessing he just spent his kids inheritance with the 4 lovely ladies too 😉

I've heard that he [i]escaped[/i] from the Tory Party 14 years ago when he defected to the other side, apparently that's not made up.
