That sort of ingratitude enrages me.
When I see these stupid opening bid prices on the bay I'm always reminded of one of those silly things we would do as kids. If one of us kids had some stupid suggestion, or, more often, a spurious claim - quite often fishing related! - there would usually be an impromptu chorus from the rest of us of the opening lines for the Everly Brother's
All I Have To do Is Dream:
Dre-e-e-e-e-am, dream, dream dre-e-eam, dre-e-e-e-e-am....
The opening bars were going through my head when I checked out that six hundred quid Chapman Hunter the other week. I see it reappeared with a more realistic two hundred opener. Interestingly, it is no longer on there so perhaps a deal was reached.
