    We'll be freezing our nuts off today while watching Sizzling Christina, sizzle in sunny Carmarthen.

    :cool:
    Tremendous selfless hard work, especially latenight after a double worldcup match Sunday. Ironically masochistic, given all the Sade-ism...

    Fat wristed Muttley.

    That bracelet looked like it fell out of a Xmas cracker.

    Almost bought that skip worthy leg lamp.

    That oak cough up coffer will sink 'em.

    Christina to Auctioneer: I can't wait to see you in action.

    Coffer sank like a Lead weight.

    Say what you like about Muttley but he does often come up with unusual and interesting bonus buys.

    Hanson has led the blues to a GG! Now watch him wipe out every penny and more with a ludicrous BB!

    Hanson goes for broke. Christina tells them it is risky i.e. don't do it. LOL

    Almost a classic folly, it squeaks a profit. That could have sunk like the coffer. Mind, it sold for about the same. Large dark furniture item, 150, thwack.

    Engrossing match. End to end stuff.

    I must say Christina looked especially wonderful today, climaxing with her garden walkabout, thick lustrous locks shimmering in the dappled sunlight, the faintest traces of ladylike perspiration giving her decolletage an alluring glisten and...i need a liedown.

    BBC approved preamble:
    Carmarthen 20
    Bargain Hunt Series 63
    https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m001fyfs
    Christina Trevanion is in Carmarthenshire, where experts Philip Serrell and Charles Hanson help the teams find profitable antiques to take to auction. Christina explores the rediscovered Rococo Gardens at Painswick and finds out how they were restored from wilderness to their former glory.

    The Translation:
    Excellent, the Queen of Sizzle, Christina Trevanion, sizzles under the hot sizzling summer sun, just as it starts to turn Parky in our current climes. In the Brazillian Coffin Joe films, hell is depicted as a freezing, snowy place, obviously deeply unpleasant for most from that part of the world. The idea of a sizzling hot hell with demons inserting pointed items up every orifice would actually be quite appealing to them, so long as the coffee wasn't instant and they weren't forced to watch the German demolition during their home World Cup. Saying that Maradona is probably down there ready to torment them. Anyway, I digress. Roasting in the baking sun will be Dreamblazer Hanson while being roasted like a fat Butterball turkey will be Muttley Serrell, an expert most fowl. Gavel thrapping will be dodgy looking Jenrick Cash for Contracts Maule, The Terminator Clown, I need your nose, your oversize boots and your unicycle, honk, honk.

    [Gaffer] Steamstress Christina Trevanion, Doyen of the dirty laugh, member of the 93% Club, good for her
    [Red Team Expert] Philip Muttley Serrell avec scarf de tat/cravatte de crap et pull-over de moth
    [Blue Team Expert] Charles Madness, madness, they call it madness Manson Hanson avec BB de folie
    [Auctioneer] Stuart Jenrick Maule, The UnderEstimator, he'll be thwack!!!
    [Auction Location] Stroud Auctions
    (Miserlin Rating: Unlisted)

    Start.jpeg Auction.jpeg

    The Teams:
    [Red Team] Mother and son, Managing Director and student
    (Challenge: Asian connection)
    [Blue Team] Mother and daughter, Cashier and PR Executive
    (Challenge: Ceramic with maker's mark)

    The Shopping:
    Reds: Random Chinese dish (13 Challenge) Bargain, Silver and garnet bracelet (17) topend, Oak coffer (220) catastrophic burns.
    Blues: Mdina glass vase (16) Perfect, Boxed 1928 Birmingham silver cockerel cocktail sticks (43) topend, 5 pieces of Poole pottery (85 Challenge) maybe.

    The Distraction:
    Christina explores the rediscovered Rococo Siffredi Gardens at Painswick (sounds painful) home of gardening in the uphill tradition. Christina laughs dirtily at the very thought and wonders what awaits for her inside.

    Distraction.jpeg

    The Auction:
    Reds: Random Chinese dish (nice profit), Silver and garnet bracelet (decent profit), Oak coffer (huge loss).
    Scruffy's BB is a pair of Spode Pearlware Asparagus servers (50), 50-100, 150, massive Scruffy profit. I'm stunned.

    OakCoffer.jpeg AsparagusServers.jpeg

    Blues: Mdina glass vase (profit), Boxed 1928 Birmingham silver cockerel cocktail sticks (nice profit), 5 pieces of Poole pottery (good profit), Golden Gavel. They shoot they score.
    Hanson's BB is a large wooden desk (156), more brown furniture 50-100, REJECTED, is it a classic Hanson folly, 160, almost, four note profit. LOL.

    Blues.jpg

    The Aftermath:
    Decent auction. Reds make a profit despite the Oak Coffer sinking faster than a 1980s Wolves team. However, Muttley redeemed himself with those Asparagus servers with a ton of profit. Hanson's Blues had a great spend with 3 good profits leading to a Golden Gavel. Hanson produced one of those heart in mouth moments by spunking all the money, 156 quid, on a large piece of furniture. It just edged over the line with a 4 note profit. Very nearly a classic Hanson folly.

    The Hi-Kick:
    Standard Indoor Kick. All reach par or thereabouts, including Muttley, and all are in unison. Outstanding, Yes, YES!!

    No, fair's fair. That's a decent kick by anybody's measure.

    There's conformity in elevation and stretch, with a decent height reached and clear visibility of all seven soles.

    Oh God McWitch.

    Oh no, Gary BB PP.

    I bet PhD Red wishes he was more than just a Best Friend.

    "Wedgwood. From the Potteries"

    "Is this a done deal?" "Yes I have been"

    "That's where I've from" as Gary points to the middle of the Pacific. Atlantis?

    "You could lie down on it," leers a hopeful Gary Peeee to Redbird, as he reclines a rank stained lounger in front of her. In your dreams, matey.

    In ours too...

    The legs on Redgirl demand recliner display.
