Purple memorabilia at a charity auction
Bridport & Lime Regis News reports that Ian Gillan have donated several items for a charity auction run by the local Rotary Club. There are some recent vinyls and DVDs, and a few books. Nothing ultra rare, in other words (well, there’s this promo copy of Naked Thunder, but that’s about it, we think). Some of the items can be autographed personally to the winner at no additional cost. The silent auction will start on March 12 and run until the end of the month. Items can be viewed and bids placed online. It is not immediately clear if the items can be shipped abroad, though:
At the end of the auction, the winning bidders will, once payment is received, be contacted by email and provided with an address in Lyme Regis from which their lot may be collected. Alternatively, we can, if preferred, arrange free delivery up to 10 miles, beyond which carriage and risk to be at buyers’ expense.
Thanks to BraveWords for the heads up.
Unauthorized copying, while sometimes necessary, is never as good as the real thing
Randomly spotted on BBC…..further down the coast and viewed from the hamlet of *Gillan was this rare optical illusion.
