I bet you chewed your nails down to elbows in that auction period.
I opted for auction simply to let the market decide its value. I set the reserve at the minimum I'd take for it: if it hadn't reached that figure I'd have kept it. Luckily, I wasn't far off. The ten days only seemed to drag because of the stream of inane questions aimed at me.

The new owner only lives in Leamington Spa, so I imagine it'll be at both Prescott and Shelsley once in a while. When I see him I'll big up this year's Castle Combe classic.......
