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.

Despite me saying that it's all ephemeral and we'll all die anyway
yesterday I bought on impulse/in panic a 120gb HDD external hard drive. I'm now worrying that I've purchased the wrong bit of kit.
Yes, the wrong bit of kit to preserve my precious photographs (which I rarely look at), music collection (which I could torrent anytime), all my current (and most recent) scribblings (which would be no great loss to the world of literature).
As someone once said to me and it comes to mind here in my case...You can't polish a turd.
But I can keep it safe.
