My sister was kindly given this by her employer the then MSP Mary Scanlon who was presented with the gift whilst a guest v the Pars to commemmorate SPL football arriving in the Highlands.

My sister then gave it to me for safekeeping and to pass on to my children.

The paperweight is inscribed

Inverness Caledonian Thistle FC v Dunfermline FC, SPL comes to the Highlands, Saturday 29 January 2005

i have a numbered bottle of whisky.....

Signed programme from Feb 8th, 2000!

Two signed team shirts from Celtic V ICT game in 2000 - real 'squad' shirts, not signed replica tops.

One of the first things I had was a signed football which was given to me by 10CC, Grassa and Mike Noble. That team went on to win the 3rd div championship. Unfortunately most of the signatures have faded now but I have the treasured pictures of the presentaion.

Since then I have been very fortunate to amass quite a collection of stuff.

I would be very suspicious of gift-bearing Tories.

I won Granty's top from the 1st Div winning season signed as well... seems to have shrunk in the wash though.

my first ever football top was th caley away top for season 95/96. ive still got it in one of my wardrobes.

also my first caley scarf from season 96/97 which i bought in th wee hut thing in th old telford street park :015:. i dont wear it now because it got a rip in it a year or so back, so i have it nicely tucked away wi some othr memorabilia.

signed ict vs rangers programme 6th aug 2005

i love it but always open to offers!

It will be with me to the day I die and I can often share its beauty with fellow fans.

A broken heel recieved on 29th Jan 2005

My most prized ICT possession is my memory .... of Richie Hart's cutback from the byline when we beat ##ltic after their win against Liverpuddle in the Scottish Cup, ... and watching the tears flowing down the faces of all the folk I sat beside in the lower divisions, when we won the First Division, including one of our prospective "toon cooncilors".

Can't sell those on E-Bay!

awww bless

The signed match day ball from the day the 1st division championship was won - I'm open to offers  :017:

when i took young Cairn to his first Caley game, the look on his face when i bought him his Caley scarf (1ST division one) he still wears it, it was an a way game as well

:014:

probably our first stripy scotrail top.  have the other scotrail one with the long sleaves too, both i still wear and both id never give up!

The picture of my son with Stewart Golabek, Jackie MacNamara and Hugh Dallas when he was mascot in 2005, and the happy memories of that night .

The photo TM4TJ took of me and Hissy at our first ever Euro match in Nykobing, Falster in Denmark  :love07:

The team jacket I got from Donald the sports psychologist which I take great pleasure in wearing to my County infested work  :001:

My most prized ICT possession is from the fans.

I had travelled from Australia and I had a ticket for the New Years game V County (2002 I think) and I was really looking forward to it.

The game was postposed due to frost but I still went to the Innes and had a fantastic day!  I had such a great day there and everyone made me feel so welcome!

I was given a bear with a red and blue hat and scarf with a Innes Bar key ring and it remains my most precious possession.

I treasure and think back to how well I am treated by all Caley Thistle fans even though I only get to Inverness every 2 years.  Every time I visit Inverness I know I can just turn up at the Innes (as I did last October) and get a warm welcome!

my "night to remember" VHS

that is, if VHS players still exist.. and i haven't worn it out
