    Anyone fancy a first edition

    Forget your old iPad - this is the world's most ancient tablet - Daily Record


    AND you thought your iPad was getting on a bit...

    This has been proved to be the world’s most ancient tablet – and it is said to contain the first written reference to Jesus Christ.

    The lead sheets, held together like a ring binder, were branded a fake after they were found in a cave in Jordan in 2008.

    But British scientists who analysed the metal confirm they are almost 2000 years old.

    Authors David and Jennifer Elkington had the 5in by 4in tablets tested by professors Roger Webb and Chris Jeynes at the University of Surrey.
    At the impolite request of certain posters & Mods I have widened my source to quality newspapers!

    It says, "TO DO: Write new novel, character name to be Jesus Christ, story to be a childs fairy tale".

        That's fine, but as long as you accept that the "moment" will be after he has done my food shop and collected my dry cleaning

          I thought Ass & Moody would like the Daily record ?


          4 sugars and a treble scotch in it as usual?

            And the tablets with the legend of Gilgamesh are less ancient?
            Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!
