'Ninja' granny

UK -- While most people settle for a telegram from the Queen, one woman wants to celebrate her 100th birthday by gaining a black belt in karate.

Ida Blake, 86, is already part of the way there having achieved her orange belt.

The grandmother-of-five, from Tooting, South London, took up the martial art three years ago because 'older people sit around too much'.

She added: 'I'll probably be 100 by the time I get to the black belt.'
