Kath Smith isn't overly fussed about turning 100 years old.
There've been too many birthdays already, she says.
"It's a bit like your 21st, you think you're going to feel different but you don't," she said.
Mrs Smith, who was born in London and moved to Whanganui when she was
6, celebrates her hundredth birthday on Saturday.
Up until recently, when her sight began to fail, Mrs Smith has been knitting for charity, sending cot covers overseas.
