About time I beat you to an auction MH.  Normally it's the other way round, as I'm usually cursing you for snapping up bargains I'm after 

[HighlandTiger]

I haven't bought for a week, withdrawals here £1100 saved for the right buy though! not much to some I know but to me that's the most cash i have ever had at one time in my life..

 

Really I shouldn't be buying anything, and should be putting it by for Xmas. But like you I get itchy fingers if I've not bought anything for a few days,
