This is a question My most treasured possession

What's your most treasured possession? What would you rescue from a fire (be it for sentimental or purely financial reasons)?

My Great-Uncle left me his visitors book which along with boring people like the Queen and Harold Wilson has Spike Milligan's signature in it. It's all loopy.

Either that or my Grandfather's swords.

This is a QotW answer I used to live on a farm
which one day went up in flames.

Running from the house, I went hell for leather towards the enclosure where the old bull was kept, throwing buckets of water around its wooden walls to stave off the approaching fire.

My father, unsure why I bothered to protect that particular enclosure above all others, questioned my actions.

"Surely that old rickety thing would just just burn down and let the beast escape?" he said.

"Ah yes", I replied. "But you misunderstand. I have to save this particular structure. It's my most treasured possession in the whole world. In dis pen's a bull, in fact!"

Do I get the prize for the most contrived answer this week?

This is a QotW comment @HLT
I've been in Germany. Spent four days in Munich over the weekend as I had gigs there. Actually, I spent most of the time drinking beer and not sleeping, so I've been knackered the last couple of days now I'm back to work.

I don't even like beer...

@CHCB - Thanks. I think.
