My most treasured possessionWhat'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.

Naughty ScratchcardThe one thing I would save in a fire is my comedy scratchcard. It fell out of a magazine I bought (probably NME or Q back when I was cool) and offered the chance of winning fantabulous things such as a mountain bike or some in-line skates (wow!). Now being 13 it had yet to occur to me that nobody ever really won these prizes but, whenever we got them, all my mates insisted on calling the claim line. It cost £1 a minute and you had to listen to five minutes of bullshit just to discover you'd won a pencil sharpener and, if you just stayed on the line another five minutes, you could leave your details and your fabulous prize would soon be winging it's way to your door. Yay!
So anyway, the card fell out of the magazine, you had to answer a question and scratch off the panel to see if you were correct. If you were you then scratched off the next panels to reveal four letters. If two of them were the same you called the phone number and the letters corresponded to your prize. I got two 'C's!
I never did bother phoning the claim line as I presumed I would have to give up my newest favouritist possession git ever to get my 'prize'. So it's been on my wall for the last fifteen years (as you can tell by the question). Bollocks to family members, they're not as funny. If there's a fire, I'm saving this!

YeahEveryone used to fancy her, didn't she get her tits out in a film a few years ago? I know Damien will now always be known as Mouse from the Matrix, but I'm sure I've seen his sisters norks.
