The world's oldest living woman, Misao Okawa, was born on the same day as Sutton United FC - 5 March 1898. She is one of two people in the world who have lived through every single day of the Us history. Both are Japanese. Ms Okawa is likely to remember the end of World War II very well - she was forty-seven years old

Good point, maybe she does speak English!
As it happens I speak a little Japanese myself, but I'm not so hot in writing. The only word I remember how to write is "sushi". ;D

The phrase "bringing coals to Newcastle" springs to mind there...
