Auction of unwanted gifts (and a few other things!)

Saturday's auction of unwanted gifts in aid of Chilton Church funds provided, as usual, a couple of hours of quality entertainment.

Auctioneer Peter Clifford (pictured)  managed to extract about £166 worth of bids from the small but select audience of keen bargain hunters.

As usual the collection of items was very eclectic, ranging from a wine cooler, a vegetable steamer, through various books (some old and valuable)  to some nice bits of china and glass.

We came away with quite a respectable horde, including some chessmen, a book on the D day landings, two vases, and a digital photoframe (new! and coming to a raffle somewhere near you soon)
