Woman celebrates 110th Birthday
Quote:
Mrs Watson, who is among the oldest people in Britain, has lived through two world wars, six monarchs and 21 prime ministers.
She marked the milestone at her Surrey care home and attributed her longevity to a healthy lifestyle and laughter, saying: "I've never smoked and rarely drunk alcohol apart from a sherry at Christmas and birthdays."
She continued: "I've always eaten healthy food but the most important thing is laughter and having a good sense of humour."

Couldn't agree more, best medicine in the world and it's free
Touching story and kinda amazing given how much the world has changed during her lifetime. Technically she has seen the end of the world... twice (world wars) and still lives to tell the tale.
Truly if you're lucky to be in decent health as you get older and see your offspring 4 generations over, it's quite a blessing.
Living and breathing treasures of history and time, here's wishing her a happy 2010
