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.

*Wipes away a tear*I don't remember the last time I told my Dad that I love him. It certainly hasn't been for about 16 years, and it might even be a bit longer than that. So 12 at the latest.
Like you, it's not that I don't respect him, because I do. I haven't even so much as hugged him for many a year. A firm hand shake and 'see you in 6 months' is about as close as we get.
And yet I do worry that he'll die one of these days and I won't have got to tell him that he's my Dad and I love him. But I also know that I won't do it, because the time will never feel right or I'll feel like a prune.
God. It's like 'The Living Years' by Mike and the Mechanics, innit?
I hope your Dad does read that. I bet he'd understand, too!
*cleek*
