Do you want to hear the good news first or the bad? Nah, I’ll start with the good. And I’ll make it short. Let me just say that this evening’s home stretch of the fan auctions was just… manic. I tried to tweet, but I couldn’t keep up. Some amazing last minute bidding pushed us…
Good morning, dear and kind friends of baritone-voiced British thesps with sophisticated silver temples. The anatomical ones, not the sacral edifices. Let’s be honest, I am fuseling a bit. Not as in “booze” (although alcohol might help?) but as in “procrastination”. I have a bit of a day ahead of me. There is some (paid)…
A day full of highlights. Waking up to see Richard had posted – and retracted – a birthday video. The hardship of time difference is upon me. I snoozed, I loozed. Currently trying to avoid all spoilers 😂 But wow, that will be a treat! Mid-morning the auction milestone of €3,000 was passed, and I…
I’ll keep this short because I suspect nobody has time for my lengthy waffle 😂. You can now find the sale open at ScissorsandSmiles on Pattern by Etsy. However, if anyone *does* want to read more, here is the marketing blurb 😉. We have an amazing number of items on offer for you, all for…
I’m interrupting my work because I really, really need to write an update. (Had a work call this morning, so couldn’t really blog, but now needs must.) We have just made a big milestone on our fan-fronted auctions. In last night’s update I disclosed that we were very close to a fantastic milestone. We have…
You probably didn’t hear it here first. But for the record – i.e. the complete documentation for the unlikely (?) event of ever having to prove my credentials to any commercial entity again – I’ll post it here, too: The speechlessness continues. I mean, thanks to all you generous people, I have come to “expect”…
Good morning, all. As promised, here comes a morning update. I have to be very quick this morning because I am heading to a volunteer induction event at 9.30am. (Unfortunately it was scheduled during the birthday week. But I am very excited about this volunteering opportunity and will talk about it more another time, as…
Goodness me. Milestones. There are milestones everywhere. Sooooo… the 50 birthday auctions are all live. The last one went online at 5.35pm. And since then my phone has been buzzing like a mad beehive with all the bid notifications. That can only mean one thing: We are passing the milestones at a rapid pace. Well,…
Right, now that we have Guy out of the way the eBay issue has been sorted (I’ll tell you more about it, but right now I just want to get this post out…), here is the bulk of the RA50Auctions. Guy’s jacket, as you know, has already blown all estimations out of the water. Here…
Hello – a late update today as there is not that much to report on the current Guy jacket auction. That’s to be expected – we are basically at the half-way point with the auction, and that usually means a lull. After the update from last night, there has only been a little movement, from…
