Oh dear auction stations

So she went off on auction bent and came home with rather more gear than normal. She argued that as she had missed the last three auctions she had ground to make up.

She has spent a lot of money by out standards.

She is really pissed off she didn't get some chairs she fancied but said she wasn't paying a penny over 3 pounds for them and if someone was willing to pay a fiver then more fool them.

She bought a lovely print for five pounds that, it seems might be worth over 50 and some very nice porcelain for 30 pounds that should be worth twice that except she likes it and so it's staying.

A pound bought her a huge pile of glass salad bowls just like she needs for her mums 100th birthday party.

Me? Well I spotted this pre war petrol container that I assumed was a copy so i didn't go mad on bidding on, now I've had a good look I am not so sure..

Ohh and she got a lovely bike for Gwion that's as near to brand new as makes no difference for 20 quid.

I still reckon she should have bid on the full on professional level mountain bike that made just 50 quid.

Can't win them all, most of them is good mind....
