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.

I've thought about that, hard.
The things I have that I would actually want to save are things of material importance (laptop, important papers) and specific things that have good associations (my 12-string, great-grandpa's book, grandma's medical diploma). While I have many things of great value in that house in the form of family antiques, I'm really only considering myself their custodian until my kids are old enough to take them. Were my house to burn I'd be mad, but not crushed.
