105-year-old reveals secret to long life is avoiding men, and we’re laughing

What a woman.

Have you ever wondered what the key to a long life is? You should probably eat well, exercise and avoid excessive drinking and smoking. Oh, and be sure to steer bloody clear of men - they're just trouble. Well, apparently, avoiding men is actually the secret to a long life, according to 105-year-old Brenda Osborne. The retired nurse reckons she owes her long life to the fact that she has avoided men and spends plenty of time in the fresh air. Sounds gorge tbh. "I would put my good health down to hard work and avoiding men." "I loved celebrating my birthday although I was disappointed the Queen didn't come. "I received my letter from her but I thought an appearance was the least she could do." This woman is an icon. Brenda has seen two world wars, the crowning of three British monarchs and 24 different Prime Ministers. Quite a life. Earlier this month Brenda had a birthday party, which her great niece attended proudly. "My auntie living for over a century is no surprise to me as she's always been fiercely independent." "She only moved into the care home last year and jokes her secret to long life is avoiding men - as they aren't worth the hassle." Take a bow Brenda. We'll be taking your advice.
