UK woman celebrates her 108th BIRTHDAY with friends and family
2 年前
London's oldest lady described Covid as "nothing compared to World War One" as she celebrated her 108th birthday with four generations of loved ones.
Former nurse Betty Spear, born in Ireland in 1913, said the secret to her long life was: "Hard work and a tipple of whisky once a week."
And Betty, who was still doing the Irish jig aged 103, added: "Keeping active and drinking a good strong cup of tea...not the watery stuff!"
She wasn't able to see her grandchildren or great grandchildren last year due to Covid restrictions.
But her entire family along with many friends - and even the local Mayor - turned up to wish her a very happy 108th birthday at St Judes Nursing Home in Sutton, south London.
Mrs Spear, whose real name is Sarah, moved to London aged just 18 to become a nurse and went on to practice in the south London suburb of Carshalton.
There she met and married George Spear in 1947 before giving birth to their "beautiful daughter" Anne.
Betty outlived her husband and daughter who both suffered from heart disease.
This video was filmed on the 4th August 2021.
