World's 'oldest blogger' makes final post


Olive Riley
1899 - 2008

The Australian woman renowned as the world's oldest blogger has made her final post, aged 108. Olive Riley, of Woy Woy on NSW's central coast, died in a nursing home on Saturday morning. Read more
I discovered Olive's blog last year when we were doing 23 Things & she was quite
delightful. Straight talking, with a great memory of things past and a wonderful zest for life, quite remarkable at 107! She even has a few clips on YouTube

You may like to check out her blog The Life of Riley or listen to a podcast, from life Matters on ABC RN of Olive talking about her life growing up in Broken Hill
