Norma Major (left) with Mary Berry
HOORAY for Mary Berry, 78 and still wanting us all to eat cake. If that wasn’t enough, in the week when figures showed cosmetic surgery had soared – most popular were boob jobs, liposuction and eyelid surgery – lovely, stylish Mary was named as Oldie of the Year and said she had no time for “Botox or tucks”.
And when everyone moans about getting older Mary was positive. “It’s wonderful to be getting old because I know more. I have experience.”
Cakes, nice jackets and common sense too. What a woman.
