This Old Thing
1) What is the oldest thing you own?
Probably my great-great-grandfather's police watch. It doesn't have a date on, but must be from around 1850.
2) What is the oldest home you've lived in?
In Oxford, I lived in an old farm house. The farm lands had been converted into a housing estate. The farmhouse was several hundred years old with thick stone walls and floors. It was great.
3) What is the oldest book you've read?
I have a volume of Horace's poetry which I forgot to return to the school library as a teenager, which dates back to 1831 IIRC.
4) What is the oldest electronic device that you still use?
I don't particularly chase new techology, but probably either the PS4 or my Dell laptop. I replaced my phone a year or so ago, and my desktop is relatively new.
5) What is the oldest work of art/architecture that you've seen?
I grew up near Stonehenge...
