Hot off the press, here's an Entry about the event I appreciated being part of this week

Very good, enjoyable to read and informative. No comments on style.
The generic explanation of how auctions work could be an entry on its own.
Any idea what the total yield of this auction series was? (or did I just miss that?)

Thanks for reading

I added in mention of the total yield, as that illustrates the excitement and surprises that the auctions generated

Excellent entry!

The one suggestion I'd make is surely you've gotta include the words 'waiting for the hammer to fall' in there somewhere



<BB<

Thank you

Yes indeed that was an oversight - hammer duly added

This is fun, even though I'm not a particular fan. And what a great idea, to make the auction also a celebration of the person.

I spotted one thing:

>>Some items, such as furniture and ornaments were laid out in 'rooms' like they would have been in the house.<<

That really needs one more comma - after 'ornaments'.

I have another suggestion: could you put the quote about wanting to be a Victorian at the beginning rather than at the end? It would help any reader who (like me!) didn't know this to be able to make sense of the growing list of bizarre but intriguing possessions being sold here.

Thanks DG

I've made those tweaks

Great!
