The most precious inanimate thing you own?

NOT really talking about the most valuable, but the most precious/sentimental.

For example it might be a teddy you have had since you were five ... that you couldn't put a price on ...

I lost the teddy I had since I was a baby.

Thanks you've just brought back some really painful memories. Crying or Very sad

Thats why i rarely wear it, i just know that it would get lost, or at the very least i would scratch the hell out of it - its safer kept at home i reckon.

Thats a good one Pat, i have loads of photo's of my little lad, they are all very precious to me, plus we kept a few of his tiny socks etc etc.
In fact, thinking about, i would say they are more important to me than my poxy wedding ring.

Good one Karma Thumbs Up

Agreed. I was about to say my reputation but that will do. I was humbled today by a little girl that chose me to tell that she was being abused at home.
The fact that she trusted me enough to help her means more to me than any material thing.
I dealt with it as per laid down procedure but cried afterwards.

My late Grandfathers wedding ring. Its worthless in monetary value but means the world to me.

Its a part of him thats close to me even though he is gone.

I'd like to think I'd have the professionalism to deal with that but I think I'd have broken down there and then tbh, things like that kill me...

I doth my hat to you Sir... Karma

A wedding ring that was my Great Grandma's, passed down to my Grandma, then to my Grandad and when he died my Dad wore it. I was allowed to take it off his finger just after he died and it is now firmly placed on a finger on my right hand. It means everything to me as it is all I have from my dad. It could actually have a scrap value as it is 24 carat gold and weighs quite a bit too.

I love that feeling, where you realise that you have just made all the difference in the world by just being there for someone. It makes me really love my job when that happens.

You have my utmost respect Sir! Karma

Home videos... The ability to actually see my Gran and hear her voice is truly humbling (she died about 12 years ago)

Plus it's always funny to hear my pre-pubescent voice... Man alive, it would make Joe Pasquale cringe!!!

The data I've collected over the years, possibly replaceable but would take a lot of effort. As far as objects are concerned, then my Westone Quantum bass.

But realistically, it could all go up in flames and I'd not be too worried. I can't take it with me Smile

My memories are the most precious thing to me - I think that's why Alzheimers seems so devastating to me.

For purely sentimental value may I introduce to the originally named 'Doggie' and 'Teddy'..........

https://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr344/Tonkatoo_2008/th_DSC01069.jpg

I was given Doggie by my natural mother when I was born and before I was adopted. I 'blame' her for my life long obsession with dogs. Teddy was given to me by my Grandparents and he still has a dob of cement on his tummy from where I dropped him at the building site that was to be our new home when I was two years old.

Both these little ones have been with me all my life, so in that respect they have many shared memories.

I've had to really think about this. I have a few things that remind me of people. I have my dads chain from when he was younger and my mams wedding ring from her marriage to him.

All of my dads comics from when he was younger like the 2000ad comics. His school pencil case and them kind of things, stuff that will always remind me of him.


He isn't dead btw we just don't see each other much.

I had 2 bears ( Big Ted and Little Ted), A panda called Panda but my favourite was Floppy Dog. I think my oldest granddaughter inherited FD. My van is full of fluffy toys that my female friends insist on buying me.

I will post a picture of it tomorrow, it is like a bloody zoo.
Can this be nominated as the gayest thread of the year in the 2010 BCF awards?
