Somewhere I have the first pair of shorts I bought when in my 30's I thought 'fat was enough' and joined a gym. Said shorts can stand up on their own. Which means they are 10yrs plus old.

The oldest timestamp on a piece of code on the website is September 2007, but I think that's when we migrated to our current hosting provider. I reckon some bits of code are at least 7 years old.
