Can't find where to put this information, I believe it's here:
The oldest man in Wales is no longer listed as alive, I couldn't find any news about him
Geoffrey Patrick, lived in Llay, Wrexham, was born in Doncaster, South Yorkshire on 3/27/1916

A few years ago I found a post about a man named Norman, aged 106 as of April 2021, who reunited with his daughter after time apart due to lockdown restrictions.

I tried looking for more information on him for a few years to no avail. However, as it turns out, he is actually somewhat notable: film producer Norman Spencer, born 13 August 1914, which would make him the fourth-oldest living man in the UK.

Yeah - Rob and I had been puzzled on this one for some time until I finally identified him today by chance after seeing a post on an unrelated forum. Very nice to finally have another 1914-born UK man confirmed living (at least up to the end of September last year).

Here are some recent photos of the UK's oldest men from these celebrations (sources: https://www,facebook.com/theholliesresthome, https://www,facebook.com/BarchesterCubbingtonMill, https://www,facebook.com/profile.php?id=100057237558399, https://www,facebook.com/ChaucerJun (I have changed the first full stops to commas as for some reason I'm having trouble with the actual links in the post)

The unfortunate news about the passing of Ronald Naylor means Norman Spencer now occupies spot #3, and we are down to just two known men from 1914.
