Someone who has had 100 years and made good use of them, bless her.

We caught up with it half way through and wished that we had watched it all the way through. You can't put a value on the immeasurable good she did for morale during the war. She was very single minded about her career after the war too, it seems. I didn't realise that she was the first recording artist to have a number one in America. Well done, Dame Vera, and congratulations on your hundredth year!

On another thread it was mentioned that our Queen could possibly follow in her mother's footsteps and reach the ripe old age 100 years or more.

This reminded me of another lovely lady Dame Vera lynn.

I have just read that the
Force's Sweet Heart will be 100 years young on 20th of this month.

Happy Birthday Dame Vera
