    They ended up getting 60k. Most expensive thing was that owl. Some idiot paid £4100 for it. Haha
    The owl will crap itself when it sees the Jambo turn his head 360 degrees.

    You're missing the vanity factor... 'Look at me, I've spent 4 thousand quid for a piece of tat 'cos I've got considerably more money than you'

    Could've got a 10 year old maroon coloured Rover with beige leather seats for that.

    You can't drive an artificial owl but you can scare a pigeon with a maroon rover

    Good point but I seriously doubt they'll see the irony.

    You'd expect it if it was an owl sanctuary that was having the auction or a closing down sale but a football club??

    I like to think that right now, somewhere in Edinburgh there's someone waking up with a stinking hangover cuddling an ornamental owl (ala The Godfather) with a £4K hole in their bank account

    I wonder what the return policy is....

    I think they were also charged ten pounds each to get into this glorified jumble sale.

    £2k for a bath? The guy apparently insisted it was filled with water before paying for it.

    To be honest if your going to pay 2k for a bath from the 80s the most sensible thing you could do was insist you saw it full of water to make sure there were no cracks or leaks. However it's still a million miles away from sensible behaviour.

    Apparently he asked if they still had the instruction manual.

    "Darling, I've just invested 4 grand in the Jambos..."

    "How many shares do you get for 4 grand?"

    "Nae shares, but I've got a plastic owl."

    Shares come and go, (well strictly speaking just go as far as the yams are concerned), but an owl like this is for life, unless you leave it too close to the fire.

    Has the symbolic emptying of the cow taken place yet though?

    That's the Grand Emptying to you.

    £25 a ticket to watch the counting of the coins (price includes a filled roll).

    eBay had them for £2 earlier today.

    Not sure how to post the link ?

    £4100 for a plastic owl - was that really the most prized item from that stand ??!
