A pestle and morter made out of stone could be 200,000 yrs old (the stone its made from!)

We've got 'the family bible' from 1673 but, for the most useless piece of kit, how about a WWI Field dressing kit issued to my Grandad in 1915? Considering he was shot in the leg, I've often wondered why no-one actually thought to use it!

 

Probably a Trilobite, about 300 million years old, but I think Michael means food stuff.

I once cooked up some cakes from dried ingredients from the 1960s when I had a munch on at a party in a house that had hardly been lived in since then.

 

That says a lot about your cooking Ziggy

 

I was really hungry

Oh, I remember keeping a Camembert in my desk draw for months, it had grown red stuff all over it.

Boy, did that make me sweat

 

Mr Kandy {61 this year}and he still doesn't look a day over 60

 

Hey Ziggy... not just food stuff any thing really .. your Trilobite looks very much like those wood louse or wood lice things that crawl about during the Summer .. wouldent want to see that under the bed sheets .. :D

 

Probably a gold ring I inherited from my grandmother, must be 100 years plus now. It has a raised flower pattern on it. Beautiful!
