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.

I was outstealing rocks.
See, I have this brick patio and have had a fire pit of the sort that stands on legs above ground. While it's been nice, I wanted something more useful and permanent- so I've hired a friend to build one for me.
Only thing is, square-ish chunks of granite cost about two quid apiece, and I need about sixty of them.
But if you know where to look, cobblestones that have been removed from the old streets can be found, as well as other chunks of cut stone that are being discarded.
So what have I been doing? Combing downtown for stones.
I have a good thousand to fifteen hundred pounds or more of rock that I scavenged today, and got out of my truck just before the rain hit.
I ache.
