Kivells Annual Auction.

Tomorrow, Saturday October 12th at Dingles

Not as much steam as last year, but loads
of other interesting lots.

And, of course, the chance to see John W
doing what he does best!

I would not touch that Auction with a bargepole as my wallet would be mortally injured and my wife would probably divorce me when she saw what I had bought!!

John Wakeham strikes the fear of God into my wallet and just by mentioning his name my wallet disappears into the deepest recesses of my pocket!

A well structured and reasonable comment Tom. Thanks for your input.

Just as a matter of interest, what did John sell to people today? It would be interesting just to know what people bought.

To be truthful, I have never been to a Kivells Auction at Dingles as I have never had the spare cash to part with as over the last couple of years I have been updating my home IT system. I hope to get to Dingles next year with a bit of luck.

Further to my first post, my wife is not very happy with me at the moment as I attended the Honiton hill Rally for the first time this year and whilst there I bought some raffle tickets and the first prize is a restored 1950 Massey Ferguson TEA 20 Tractor. My wife at first thought that it was a good idea as if I won it I could sell it and take her on a holiday. She was not very impressed when I said that I would keep it and take it to local rallies!

Go just for the experience. You have seen nothing like John W in full flight , just keep your hands by your sides else you may end up with some thing you don't want, John will take anything as a bid, Don't pick your nose!!!!!!!!!

My ploy has always been to stand close behind him. I have not bought too much that way. Only the things I wanted! Terrific entertainment, thank you John.
