Very interesting chat at Stacey's Auctioneers. The items i took to be valued, on the Antique Atlas website, they valued them around £400, same as E-Bay with individuals selling them separately, but personally think a lot of items on E-Bay are 'fantasy island' prices!.
Stacey's checked them out & suggested a reserved price between £120-£150. Bearing in mind they take 20% commission, the more they get for them, the more they make.
Hell of a difference, but bottom line is i'll have around £100 more than if i hadn't sorted out the loft!.
Now what do i do with the money, use it for Christmas or put it away towards a season ticket for next season????.

What is needed now is 2+ bidders after them at the auction
 
A broken seat at the Palace Theatre. We booked last moment to see Oliver there tonight and got two tickets in the dress circle, not too bad and the view was ok. Five minutes before the show started the left side of my seat parted company with it's retaining screws. A quick word with the House manager and we were re-seated in the front centre stalls five rows from the front. Far better view and a very good show from the Little Theatre Company.

Hard to say really. I'm 15.8 stone which a theatre seat should be able to cope with but the seats at the Palace are all getting on a bit. In my defence we have been there loads of times and this was the first seat collapse I have encountered where my arse was involved.

Ha!, as long as there wasn't a cascade of splinters & fabric showering those around you, no damage done!.
Now my partner dosn't think she has a big arse, but when she sits down, it sounds like a round of applause!!.
 
Morrison's still selling whole Salmon's for £5 per kilo, instead of £12. Have brought 3 since last week, remove pin bones, skin & divvy up into portions ready to grill.
Est have got 30 breakfasts waiting for me, working out at £1.20p each, happy days!.
 
Seeing Hugh Grant and Steve Coogan getting out there and walking the walk over the last few days. Fair play to you fellas :Thumbs up:
