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 very exciting but...2 rings, one a solid silver belt buckle ring given by my mam to my granda for his silver wedding anniversary, and the one my granda gave back to say thank you, which is a one of a kind, its a 2 shilling piece (i think, old silver big coin), hollowed and boared out into a ring.
My mam said she's never worn hers cos it didn't fit, and my granda gave his back to her on his deathbed and said he wanted the two rings to stay together (sounds at once lord of the rings, and also a bit gay), but the day after he died, my mam came to me and said that no matter what they had to be together. so I wore them for a while, now they're on a chain in my drawer.
Both are a bit of a mess now, the belt buckle one was worn everyday for 30 odd years, and the other one is an old coin. so go fig.
Now for the pun... I think I might polish my mam's ring tomorrow...
