Still working at 100

Available for over a year

Seventy-two is already past retirement age for many people. That's when David Flucker, who's from Edinburgh, first gave up work. But it wasn't long before he found another job. Now, aged 100, he's still commuting three days a week to work in St Columba's Hospice shop in Ocean Terminal. For 5 Minutes On, he tells BBC Scotland reporter, Morag Kinniburgh, why he didn't want to stop. "I just couldn't stand having nothing to do, I had to do something," he says. "I enjoy coming down here because the other volunteers are all happy people, they all enjoy the job and look forward to coming." Photo credit: BBC
