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.

3 types of b3tard
last weeks question lit the board up with passionate posts/rants. this week the response has been less dramatic. from what i can see, it would seem three types of b3tard are apparent
1. i love that watch, teddy, sentimental item in my possession - regardless of it's value
2. i love my laptop, PS3, bike, car, etc. it's valuable but with some hassle i can replace it
3. i have no time for material things but i love my memories, photos, etc (not so much them but the feelings they envoke) so to me they are irreplacable
but the thing that seems to run through many posts is that if they do go, it's tough but we get over it and plod on. some might say thats life, but it's not - many lives fall apart. we all have 'black sheep' - alchoholic's, suicides, the pervy uncle or other assorted fuck-ups in our lives and families. so all the people on this board that have gone through dramatic losses of one sort or another - legless has had it tough and so have a few others...
for a bunch of apparent loosers tapping away in the night or avoiding our jobs through the day...
were doing just fine.
ps i cant spall cheok this because i'm using mrs spimf's horrible little plastic laptop and i cannot be arsed with it - even the nasty little fragile plasticky keys bug me, so maybe i'd take a view on flames/heat/lovely smooth 17'' mac powerbook if pushed
