Remember this guy? 

 

Well, after thoundsands of views and over 2000 entrants, Tommy decided on a 'winner'.  Stuart Flynn and his wife Dawn will be enjoying the vacation to Malta.

Stuart had been attacked and beaten last year and left in a coma.  He had to learn to walk, talk and even feed himself again due to his injuries.  Dawn emailed Tommy with her application for the 'contest', saying she hoped that the getaway would help with the stress of his rehabilitation.

Tommy said: ‘I picked Stuart and Dawn because I thought that it was an incredible story, but what I loved most was that they had such a positive attitude on life."

As for Tommy himself, he said was amazed by the attention his good deed received. ‘I’ve had an incredible time doing this. It was never about me. I just gave my holiday away because otherwise it would have gone to waste.’

He'll still get to enjoy a trip to Malta  - the Maltese government and tour industry have offered him an all-expenses-paid trip for two :)
