My mother visited her local clinic yesterday. While she was having a blood test, the nurse casually asked her how old she is.
‘I’m 84. I’ll be 85 in March,’ she replied, not without a touch of pride.
The nurse told Mum she’d seen another 84-year-old woman the previous day. ‘She brought her mother along,’ she said.
‘What?’ Mum asked. ‘Her mother?’
Yes, the nurse replied, ‘Her mother. She’s 104.’
