Happy Birthday Mr Holden, I won't wish you many more as I know how this story ends. I loved you as the farner in babe, "that'll do pig that'll do."In 1997 Alec Holden from Killamory put a 250/1 bet on with the bookies William Hill that he would live to the age of 100, being 90 at the time and looking pale the bet was taken.
10 years later Mr Holden is 100 and received £25,000 not to mention his birthday card from the Queen as per tradition.
he puts his longevity doon to eating porridge for breakfast and remembering to breath.
He joked about looking out for groups hooded thugs from William Hill .
Congratulations Mr Holden though I can't condone gambling but I'm sure the Lord will understand.
In Killamory today a family of 3 were burned to death in a hoose fire, it could have all ended in tragedy if it wasn't for firemen finding their pet cat 'Lucky' alive and well. Lucky was singed but healthy and enjoyed a meal of generic cat food, she'll be euthanised later this week in line with the Killamory stray cat policy.
Such stories make me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.
