Are they used? Do they tell a story? Did the Atlantic ocean roll in and lap at the bottom of the barrel, salting the outside and making the drink extra special?

If so, lets sit on 'em and smoke cigars!

By the looks of them they most likely come from an upscale Bordeaux/Bourgogne or Piemonte/Toscana house

My grandparents ran the biggest cooperage in Liverpool and made quite a tidy sum which they proceeded to gamble and piss up the wall.

They do appear to be burgundy stained so I presume wine.

Same, my grandads adoptive parents were millionaires, they invested loads of money over the years into textiles companies in Leicester, then one day, it all went tits up, their investment was worth nothing.

It's amazing what you find when you some family tree stuff, someone on here helped me do mine, my Grandma always went on about her uncles she never met that died in WW1, and I managed to find them, and where they died, turns out one of them was somewhat of a war-hero - fought on a hill for days with a few men against hundreds of Germans.

The other, if I remember correctly either died at Ypres or the Somme, another among thousands.

One of my great-grandparents used to own a big house right on the edge of what is now Wentworth. Sold it for not very much at all.

We've done the family tree on my Dad's side; soldiers going all the way back, with some suspiciously dodgy types in 18th/19th century

I think I got my Dads Dads side back to 1700 or something; name, birth place, death place and a picture, I was quite impressed

 

[Mabs]

my dad did most of his side of our tree, lots of military going back a long way
including these 2 loons http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jasper_Nicolls http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lovell_Benjamin_Badcock , and one person who was murdered on his way to market

 

[Raven]

My Granddad did ours back to the 12th century, and a bit further back with some unproven links. Nearly directly related to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Catesby and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Catesby
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Catesby
I think anyone can find someone interesting in their family tree if they go back far enough.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Catesby

It ended up with me planning to meet him in 'Greater London' for a beer.

Where you at Tom? Looks like you're looking down into Edale with Mam Tor, Hollins Cross & Lose Hill the other side of the valley...

I just signed up for the BHF Offroad Peak Ride round there this evening

 

[Job]

You couldnt make this up..what really riles me is his pathetic excuses for doing it..the exact same excuses everyone uses and get shit off Greenpeace for not sacrificing some comfort for the planet.

Ever fancied coming to skirts and doing some walking? You'll have a good time, I guarantee it.

 

[Raven]

I've been up Ben Nevis, was lucky to get clear skies too.

 

[old.Tohtori]

@Big G , different strokes i guess. Seeing all those hills and rocks to some look like a fun time, to me it looks like achy feet and scraped knees

 

[old.user4556]

Yes it's cloudy almost every day at the summit.

 

[DaGaffer]

I've been up Ben Nevis,

I bet you have.

 

[Raven]

Yeah there was a bunch of white out warning signs when I went there which I thought was really odd but the guide was saying how sometimes its so bad you can hardly see your hand in front of your face.
