An 86-year-old grandmother said she spent the summer in Ibiza and stayed up until 3am with her granddaughter.
Margaret Dillon, who travelled to the Spanish party island to see her granddaughter Zoe Ferguson renew her wedding vows, claimed she was the “last one standing” as she partied the night away at the holiday.

The 21-year-old grandmother said of the trip: “I loved it, you’re never too old to dance.
“I would recommend anyone who is older to go to Ibiza or go clubbing.
“I don’t want to sit at home, that would be boring.
“I tell my family that I will live until I am 200. I take care of people and that keeps me young.”

During her holiday, Margaret went to parties at O Beach Club, Café Mambo and Ushuaia, where stars such as David Guetta and Calvin Harris performed.
The silver-haired partygoer even bumped into Wayne Linekar, brother of BBC presenter Gary.
“I met Wayne Lineker and took a picture with him.
“I wrapped my legs around him so he could get his leg over it.
“A few years ago I traveled to Thailand and got a massage from an elephant’s trunk. I told him that trunk was bigger than his.”
The brazen grandmother also revealed that she threw a bottle of champagne down a waiter’s pants.
“He laughed and thought it was great,” she said.
‘I also lifted a woman by her backpack. I got away with it.’
Margaret was all dolled up for the trip, partying in a sparkly top and stick-on face gems.
Why Women Should Wear Bikinis Regardless of Their Age or Body Shape
IF you think you have to hide your body this summer – think again!
Fabulous Magazine’s fashion director, Tracey Lea Sayer, has
Times have changed since 2015, when Protein World spent £250,000 on an advertising campaign featuring a svelte 20-year-old bikini model asking readers, “Are you beach ready?” The resulting outcry over the objectification of women was global. The verdict on the campaign and the social media backlash, which was labelled offensive, irresponsible and damaging, was well-documented, and rightly so.
Now I am happy to say that all sizes of women are represented in swimwear in the media landscape. Brands like JD Williams, In The Style and New Look, to name a few, all work with models of all sizes and ages to promote their swimwear.
My social media feed is also filled with ladies of all ages and sizes looking amazing in their swimwear. What started as a stream of shy bikini selfies has now become a body-positive movement that makes us all feel good about putting on our swimwear.
And why wouldn’t we! Our bodies are all completely different and we should celebrate that fact.
At 53 I love bikinis, I love having an all over tan in the summer with as little white spots as possible. I don’t want to dumb myself down as I get older, I want to celebrate the fact that I’m still here! My goal is to keep wearing bikinis well into my 80s if I’m lucky enough to get there.
I have learned to love the aging process. I will never look the same as I did when I was 20, but I do enjoy taking care of myself a lot more than I did then. A better diet, more exercise, and lots of self-care make me feel good inside and out.
I love that other cultures love to celebrate their elders, I think we need to embrace this in Western society instead of just fetishizing the youth.
Growing older is not something to fear, but to embrace.
I’m gonna put on that damn bikini!
“We were partying every night. My favorite place was Ocean Beach Club — I would walk in there in my bikini,” she revealed.
“Everyone looked fantastic.”
And the grandma told us that Ibiza isn’t her only party location.
She added that she also enjoys going to clubs in her hometown of Middlesborough.
“I’m delighted to hold the title of Britain’s oldest clubber,” she said.
“I’ve never seen anyone older. I wish everyone would go outside and let their hair down.”
Margaret also had a wild pole dancing experience in Thailand when she was 78.
However, she joked that unfortunately no one had put notes in her underwear.
“I would love to go back to Ibiza or even the US,” she revealed. “My sister lives there so it would be great to visit.
“I would also like to stop in Vegas. If Elvis Presley was still alive, I would like to dance with him.”
