Northern Ireland's reputedly oldest person celebrates her 109th birthday and has no intention of slowing down.

Maud Nicholl was born in 1909 and proves every day that age really is just a number.

She lives on her own, loves to get out and about to socialise and still has a cracking sense of humour - her birthday wish was for the Queen to arrive on a helicopter.
