What would you grab if you had two minutes to leave your house?

My laptop. My life is on there. Photos, documents, contacts, books, bank details, insurance details, purchasing history if I have to re-buy anything. Everything in one place.

Laptop, credit card, car keys, photo albums, comfortable shoes- there's too many old toys and collectibles in my house I wouldn't know where to begin to prioritise what else to save first!! But the cat would be a priority before anything else.

My New Mulberry bag ( shallow I know )

My Cat and teddy

My home insurance policy

My diaries. I have a memory like a sieve which is deteriorating and have been keeping a journal/diary for the last 15 years. And the old family photos I haven’t scanned onto the computer yet. Most of my photos are on The Cloud so I should be able to retrieve them. Stuff like passports, NI Insurance numbers etc would be handy too, but I’d need a lot longer than two minutes to track it all down. Perhaps it’s time I got organised!

I have a metal nutcracker in the shape of a dog. It was made in a local foundry as a foreigner for my granddad around the 1930s and is a bit of local history. He gave it to me to keep safe about 40 years ago. I would take that and my memory stick with all our photos on in. Irreplaceable.

I was actually flooded a couple of years ago, and so I know that I would grab my just my photos. I found that in the event, as grandMattie says, everything else was ‘stuff’.

All my photo albums and all my diaries - lots and lots of both. Maybe I should get a wheel barrow so I can get them all out safely!

My laptop/bag/moisturiser and hairbrush can't live without them.

Schnackie - I'm the same... will be gone with the house or know exactly what I should have taken 10 mins later!

Engagement ring & wallet.

I am well known for "not being able to make a decision to save my life!" So I would probably just burn down with the house (or drown in the flood or whatever)

Phone, purse and car keys are always in my handbag, ready for a quick excape, oh one more thing, my Passport! dont live in the UK and need to get back!

A couple of photos and my phone, I think.

My handbag and I-Pad.

Photographs!!! The only thing I wanted when my first marriage ended!!

Laptop for photos amd a framed pencil drawing of a tiger my daughter spent months drawing for my birthday when she was 15: she will be 30 in April (tigers are my favourite animal).

Like Nanabilly , presuming my bag with IPad was already on my shoulder, it would be the scrapbooks. We were travelling for years and I kept a daily journal and on our return home continued, with a baby soon on the way. Once she was born, scribbled journals became scrapbooks detailing the children’s lives, our homes and environments etc. for the next 18 + years. My daughter intends to photo them and put them on the computer so that she can throw away the 60 albums when I’m gone, but when she will ever have time I can’t imagine.

Family photos. They go back several generations and my daughter would never forgive me if I lost them, and my late mother would haunt me!

Passport and iPad with all of my bank details as well as my purse with cards. Most things can be replaced but losing your identity credentials would be rather inconvenient.

Probably nothing. At my age, i just think of things like that as "stuff", though I might make the efort to save my hard drive.

Laptop, phone and purse - oh and car keys if there’s time (always keep them in the same place)

My laptop, my phone both for photographs, plus genealogy material, letters, wills and grainy family photos going back to the 19th century.
