PLEASE NOTE - I may be called in for an operation on Monday should the opening arise.  If so, there maybe a slight delay of sending of up to a week (but clearly it is likely to be far shorter as recovery times are thankfully quicker in this day and age).  Of course, I will still be contactable even in the hospital bed.  I will also schedule more auctions in advance anyway, so there will still be something to look at next week!
