    If your house was on fire

    If you could only take one thing out, what would it be?

    I'd take my computer harddrive, and throw the rest of my computer on the fire and claim i had an A64 (There isn't any insurance guys around here is there? if so, move along )

    (Excluding humans)

    I wouldn't spend my time pissing about trying to save objects that can be replaced on my insurance, I'd be busy getting the hell out and making sure the fire brigade lads don't have to risk their neck to drag me out.

    Id probably be the fool that probably kills himself and risks the lives of the people trying to help me by trying to save everything =/


    ...but as for 1 thing, the floor seeing as everything else is attatched to it.

    The book I'm reading at the moment. It took Amazon SEVEN months to send it, and I don't fancy having to wait that long again to finish it, thanks.

    When I finish the book... a pair of shorts probably. I sleep in the nude.

    If the wife & kids were safe then it'd have to be my briefcase. My whole life is stashed away in there, also handily contains my wallet & car keys. PC? prolly not, could claim on insurance as i keep receipts for prettymuch everything

    And like Theo, some form of modesty containment.
