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.

Lego is one of the few quality toys still around today
As you've said, I spent many happy hours constructing whatever my imagination desired as a child. Cue 12 years ago, I had a child of my own. I started him off with Duplo as a tot (the choke-friendly toddler version) then introduced him to Proper Lego. Hours upon months upon years of healthy fun.
These days, it's hard to find a plain box of Lego. Mostly they come in themes now, such as Star Wars (nothing wrong with that) but half the pieces are taylor-made to the theme, leaving little to ingenuity.
Having said that, I adore the Lego Star Wars game for xbox360 et al.... My son borrowed it from our neighbour and I couldn't get enough....
*click* coz Lego bricks ;o)
