True, i'm not a heavy chap, so I should be ok! I don't know how old the fork is - got it from @Thrasher last week!
It is a Columbus Hiver fork, so probably not "old".

I don’t think a small loaded basket puts a massive amount of strain on the fork. It’s already got to handle people (who could be very heavy) potentially hopping off curbs and generally abusing their bikes... how old’s the fork?
