It was Alison Chapman. The big blonde haired bird that keeps her dosh in her bra. I think this may have been some time ago as she's lost a lot of weight. |

She's a big unit all right. Built for comfort rather than speed! |

Joking apart, where do they get these so called .........experts
I know Bargain hunt is a total load of tosh these days, but when you see some of the bonus buys ? OMG what a load of crap !!
I go to Bellmans quite often and Jonathan Pratt is a nice sociable guy but every time he's on, his bonus items are LUCKY to reach half what he pays for them !
Thomas Plant appears to ONLY good at one thing ! Sweating ...gives me the creeps as well as regulary losing money
Kate Alcock ONLY buys over priced bits of silver
Charles Hanson reminds me of Boris Johnson appears to be a nice chap but a buffoon ! Only buys 300 year and older oriental cracked pieces that " SHOULD GO " for loads but usually fetch £15 |

The 'Master' is James Whatshisname from Bamfords (big fella, usually bearded). On Road Trip, he always seems to make a decent wedge(wood). Sorry about that last bit. |

Yeh ! James Lewis, he often seems to do the business. He was a BBR a couple of years back when Bamfords did their @ Tin @ sale for Metal box. Seemed a genuinely nice guy and as you say Cookie seems to " ACTUALLY " know what hes talking about |

I met James Lewis at Bamfords at the first advertising fair year before last. He's a nice bloke - has time for a chat etc. Met Catherine Southon at Newark, she seemed nice too. Also met John Cameron at a B n B last Feb. Seemed like a nice guy too. That said, they all seem to come from an auction house background, none are dealers.
No-one compares to Michael Hogben on Dickinsons Real Deal, he's a right oily bastard, he'd sell his granny.

Pretty sure John " The Hammer " Cameron is actually ' blood related ' to our very own Cherryboy ! so we better not knock his performances !! |

I bought this felix tin and sold it on at a loss....by the time I had picked it up at the saleroom it had acquired a few extra scratches....why cant salerooms ever understand the delicate nature of printed tin....just one small scratch in the wrong place and the value can half......nothing worse than being told you can just "touch it in " !....bloody furniture dealers !! |
