Nanna Lucht turns 102

Today is my great-grand-mother's 102nd birthday.

Yup, one-HUNDRED-and-two years old.

She still lives in her own home in Toowoomba and takes care of herself, apart from the occasional visit from the good people at meals-on-wheels. She is as sharp as a tack, enjoys the odd glass of port and doesn't mind a feed of KFC.

And just quietly, rumour has it, she once said "f-ck". But she was very angry at the time and despite the fact that reports of the F-bomb spread like wildfire through the extended family, she would be horrified if anyone knew. So officially, it's only a rumour.

She's my mum's mum's mum so maybe I got me some of those longevity genes. I guess we'll see.

Anyway, here she is a whole two years ago at the spry age of 100:


That's her on the left.

She looks just like you!

Just quietly, my Grams lived to 104. Take it. So she's still got a couple left to go. (Mine liked port too, but never said f*ck. She liked to watch that dating show though.)

She probably would have liked to f*ck...
