This 80-year-old is still picking like crazy

Wat do you do when you're eighty years old? Jigsaw puzzles, playing with the grandchildren and watching the geraniums grow? That's not Mr Van Dorp's cup of tea. On Saturday, March 19, he celebrated his eightieth birthday in a Dutch greenhouse.

"And still he can't resist helping his son and greenhouse grower Peter van Dorp with picking. Last week, the first tomatoes were ripe, so he's at it again," his son-in-lawPieter van Dijk writes. "Great work, Dad - go on like that. It keeps you fit!"
