My Dad's aunt is 94 althoughI've never met her. All of my dad's side have lived to a ripe old age. My Dad is 75 this year and says he plans to be around until he's 93 at least! Don't suppose they smoked 40 a day as I do, so doubt I'll be joining them.

bit of a cheat 'cos I don't even know her surname and she is now sadly departed, but my great great aunt was 103 when she died about 5 years ago (and she used to do shopping for the 'old' people living near her!!!)
