You can never know everything. Even at the age of 97, I'm still learning. Every day, I try to learn a new fact. The secret to longevity? Train your brain!

Life is too short to waste time on things that don't matter. Focus on what brings you joy, purpose, and fulfillment. Share your gifts with the world, make a positive impact, and leave a legacy that inspires others to do the same.

Well I made it through another Christmas! I'm like a duracell battery! It's just a shame that I'm not rechargeable! Now onto my 97th birthday!

My son is coming to lunch today. I rang him to tell him that the butcher has the Schnitzels and he replied 'He should see a doctor'

All I take from watching Toy Story with my great Grandson is that if Woody died, the child that owns him wouldn't know and the other toys would have to keep quiet and watch him play with the body of a dead cowboy.

I have lost count the amount of times people have asked me what I'm doing over the holidays. I will be 96 next month. I'm always on holiday! I will be sitting at home drinking copious amounts of gin! The same as every other day, thanks for asking!

Things used to be cool, now according to my great grandson they're on fire. What I've learned from this is that no matter your generation, if you like something it's very much temperature based.

Queen Elizabeth. She's 96 like me. The main difference between us is our throne rooms. Mine is my downstairs toilet.

Do not grow old, no matter how long you live. Never cease to stand like curious children before the Great Mystery into which we were born.

I seem to have reached a point in my life where i'm constantly congratulated for still being alive. If breathing was an olympic sport, I would be a gold medalist apparently.

I'm very sad to hear of the passing of Betty White. She was an amazing lady and worked hard at her craft for many decades. Also she gave the youngsters a run for their money! May she rest in peace.

Thank you so much for all the lovely messages checking that I'm still alive. I would love to tell you that I've been busy running marathons but at 95, the only marathon I can manage to finish is the chocolate bar! I have been busy catching up with family, friends and drinking gin

My 5 year old great grandson just ran up to me brandishing a photograph of me from 1946. He looked at it, then peered over the photograph at me before exclaiming; 'What happened?!

Saying 'You look more like sisters' to a mother and daughter can sound charming to a mother if she is in her thirties or forties, but at 95 years of age, I am indifferent to the compliment and my daughter is mortified.

The weather is far too hot for my liking. I think I need to put my head inside the refrigerator, after I put a large bottle of gin inside, so I have something meaningful to do whilst i'm in there.
