New thread, new thread, my kingdom for a new thread
And by "kingdom" I mean an unkempt vegetable patch, a box room at the top of the house smelling of old beer and stale man-sweat and a Sega Master System (defunct).

What do you estimate your wordly possessions amount to? I reckon my CD collection, taken as one item, is the most valuable thing I own. Unless you rate it based on how much it would fetch now, not how much I've spunked on it over the years. How depressing. I've also got quite a nice telly.

Alt: What massive void in your life does b3ta fill? In my case it's a substitute for human interaction during my working day, because my colleagues are even meaner than you lot, and not half as pretty. Except Rebecca*. Mmm, Rebecca*.

Few grands' worth I suppose. I usually spend money on stuff that has value to me, rather than any particular intrinsic worth. I do have an arse-load of hi-fi/computing stuff, I suppose. That all dates, though.

Alt: Gives me something to read whilst I'm at work. Most of the time I'm on the phone and it's either reading this or listening to whatever the half-intelligent drone on the other end is wittering pointlessly about. Also it gives me occasion to read about all the grand social occasions Gonz and I are being heartlessly excluded from.
