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.

Boo-Boo
Boo-Boo is my extremely tatty-looking, oft-mended teddy bear. Not sure exactly when I got him, but I must have only been a couple of months old when I did.
I don't know why he's named Boo-Boo, but he kind of looks like Yogi Bear's friend of the same name, so that's the story I'm sticking with.
Every time I move house, he 'lives' with me (although, usually stuffed in the corner of some armchair). I'd definitely take him out in the case of fire.
Also, my nana's wedding ring. I found it in her sewing tin when I was about 9, and she said I could keep it.
I hang onto it more as a memento of my Pop, who was pretty cool, and taught me how to fish and play poker, and sung songs in an Irish accent when he was sozzled (most of the time).
Not actually sure if I have it here or back in Oz, but I'd grab that and the set of my great-grandma's rosary beads.
