109-year-old Jessie Gallan |
Jessie Gallan, Scothland's oldest woman turned 109 on January 2. She
celebrated her birthday with a slice of cake at her care home in
Aberdeen. The centenarian left home at 13 to become a milkmaid and never
married. A senior support worker said Miss Gallon lives a 'very
healthy lifestyle'.
Jessie Gallan told The Daily Mail;
“My secret to a long life has been staying away from men, They’re just more trouble than they’re worth. I also
made sure that I got plenty of exercise, and eat a nice
warm bowl of porridge every morning.”
As for being the oldest woman in Scotland, Jessie doesn’t seem too
impressed by it all:
“If I am the oldest person, well, that’s all right.
I cannot help it.”
