    I bought a watch made by a company called Cybeat (never heard of them before or since) for the equivalent of about €8, about 7 years ago.

    It was bought to be used on a camping trip I was going on and I wouldn't have cared if it had died after that ended, but, thanks to the solar panel on it, it is still going strong on the original battery 7 years later, and has survived 3 or 4 cycles in a washing machine too.

    I don't know if it's a 'prized' possession, but it is the best value for money ever.

    I have had a belt that I bought in 1977 (ish) still use it most days and it still fits.
    Not sure if it counts as Euros weren't in existence then.

    I have a black and white photograph of John Hume with his hands out facing a load of armed RUC or British soldiers. It's in a brown frame and signed by John Hume himself. Was given to me by a close relative following an SDLP fundraiser in Dublin in the early 1990s. Would never sell it.

    You're right there! Sure who'd want to buy that ........

    The half dollar coin with the year I was born engraved in it. My uncle may he Rest In Peace came home from America for a holiday 40 years ago and gave it to my mam for me as a keepsake before he went home. It's always been in our house. We have a tape of my grandad being interviewed on the radio a couple of years before he died and that's very special too.

    Lovely set of brass darts which I bought from the local pound shop years ago.

    I've top quality tungsten darts also, but I don't tend to score well with them. They're probably the wrong weight for we.

    For the last few rounds of the local league here in my town which I play in, I used my brass and won every leg I played.

    Sounds ridiculous but gel insoles - had/have a horrifically painful bout of plantar fasciitis and the instant relief they have brought is priceless!

    HAMA head set and mouthpiece, bought in radionics retail outlet for the discount price of €5.50.

    Since it requires a splitter to connect the ear and the mic to a single smartphone socket which cost €3 elsewhere, this comes to a total of €8.50

    A stress ball that I have at work. Will be giving it a bating next week.
