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.

not a dig at the writerbut it pisses me off at the way we are so emotionally/politically crippled as to allow our language to be contorted into such spasms as "the day that the events of September 11th happened". I mean... surely 'September the 11th' would suffice?
Like I say, not a dig at the author, this is very much a universal cultural bludgeon affecting us all (politics and the English language, anyone?)
