At 109, Jessie Gallan is the oldest living person in Scotland, when she turned 109 on January 2, she celebrated with a slice of cake at her care home in Aberdeen.
On her birthday she shared her secret to long ling, ‘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, eat a nice warm bowl of
porridge every morning and have never gotten married’’ she said.
Jessie Gallan never married.
The oldest person in the world is also a woman, Misao Okawa of Japan, who celebrated her 116th birthday in 2014. She has been a widow for 83 years, she never remarried after her husband died in 1931.
Maybe Jesse Gallan’s view about avoiding men if you want to live long is right afterall!
