Auction in action

Another day another auction.

A frenzy of morning action with tallie off to the optician, Bethan to school, and of course management off to the auction. This all to be achieved in a 1 hour slot, everything as achieved and i set off in pursuit of management. ith a brief detour to the greasy garage to repair the xantia and remind myself hat the 806 looked like.

A day of nodding waving and winking and management had a lot of things added to her pile. i had a few extras myself, lots of tools for not much money.

This didn't miss management; she observed that e seemed to have spent rather more than normal.

The fact that nearly half of everything e spent was one item for her to go and play amongst the trees seemed to have passed her by...

My birthday being tomorrow she had of course scoured the place for something and again she found it. A stopper affair which she claims Will prevent me from spilling wine into my laptop again..

I am sure she meant it nicely.

That as not the days worst though.

i had spotted some very old carpentry tools going for sale. 5 pounds - that's cheap, someone got a bargain - i thought. Then the auctioneer ask for the bidders number, Bethan calmly gave him mine. It is bad enough that her mother is buying things, now Bethan is at it too......

Oh dear.....
