Pointless, Randon yet quite interesting facts...

Until the 1960s the town of Berwick upon Tweed was officially at war with Russia. After the Union of England and Scotland in 1707 any declaration of war against a foreign power specified England and Scotland and also the ancient principality of Berwick upon Tweed which frequently changed hands during border wars. After the Crimean war in 1855 and signing the armistice mention of the town was stopped. Technically then Berwick was still at war with Russia. When this anomaly was discovered the Russian ambassador visited Berwick, declared hostilities a draw, and signed a peace treaty.

the reason we clink our drinks together when we say cheers dates back to when poisoning your guest's drink was commonplace and the act of clinking transferred some of their liquid into your own goblet so as to show them it was safe to drink.
