A resident at a Hastings home was rightly spoiled as she celebrated her 106th birthday

Marjorie Bartlett lives at MHA Lauriston and was treated to a day full of surprises for her 106th birthday

The home organised an amazing bee themed birthday party for her due to her fascination for bees and there was also time for

She credits her decisions to keeping bees and having a spoonful of honey on a daily basis her secret to a long life

Marjorie spent the day with her nieces and nephews who came to visit her and received plenty of gifts and cards

Maddy Painter admin manager said: The day started with getting Marjorie ready which included her getting her hair done for the big day

She absolutely adores bees so the day was themed around bees including the birthday cake which was yellow and black

We set up her presents and cards in the lounge ready for her and she was greeted with a round of applause from residents

There was plenty of singing for her and the family were blown away by the arrangements

After visiting Rye she was ready to go again but we had to carry on with the rest of the day including opening her presents

She is a real joy in the home she is still very active and plays the piano and is such a lovely person to have in the home

She has the energy of a 20-year-old and is already planning what she wants for her next birthday!
