Was just reading about this tree on the BBC News. Its said to be 5000 years old and the oldest living thing in Europe.

Ah yes. I thought I'd seen a slight rise in the number of people hitting my gallery looking for this too.

Actually, the last I heard it was more likely to be only 3000yrs old. That's still pretty antiquated, though.
