A multi-lingual retired midwife who has just turned 100 believes her longevity is down to good genes and good luck.
May McEntee celebrated her big day with friends and family at Mount House & Severn View Care Home in Shrewsbury.
She helped make her own Victoria Sponge birthday cake and received a card from King Charles.
When the Shropshire Star visited her, May, who speaks English, French and Spanish, sang in Spanish and told us about her life.
