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.

I would save the thing that was the most precious to me for ages. A bit of history first....When I was a young indie-pop kid, Manics were everywhere in the music papers - You Love Us on the radio, I had Culture Slut spray-painted on my school shirt...those were the days...
Anyhoo, I digress. I read a piece in the NME or Melody Maker where they were being all pessimistic and nihilistic and I sympathised with them, going through a tough time myself. I was spurred on to write them a letter, a real pep-talk of a letter telling them how much they meant to me etc and I got a reply a few days later saying:
Larissa, take care, Richey. xxx
Soon after he went missing and not long after that so did my letter from him.
