Re: Alnico- Lord's Pavilion T20 Auction.

Gassage

Right you lot.

As I'm moving house and broke, I thought about how I could help with this and what I could get that's exclusive and worth money.

So, cricket fans and watchers; I offer you and a mate the chance to watch any of the Middlesex T20's in June at Lord's IN THE MEMBERS PAVILION with a drink or two in the MAIN COMMITTEE ROOM.

No non-member is allowed in during match days but I'll get you tickets, sign you in as my guest and take you around the pav and see all the historic bits of Lords.

Only caveat is dress regs apply. (which rules out 1/2 the Fretboard) and please behave otherwise I get kicked out.

So, best offer or bid on this thread or PM. ENDS MIDNIGHT ON BOXING DAY.

Bidding starts at £100 for the pair of tickets.

Do check the fixtures- on Lords.org

If it rains and no ball bowled, I'll just offer the same gig for 2017.

Top work James. If I wasn't at the other end of the country I'd definitely be on board :-(

Gassage

Don't. If Drew or RHC bids I know it'll be with ulterior motives

im in £120

I'm not a cricket fan but top work @Gassage. A mighty generous gesture.

Gassage

Nice one. If you win we'll be talking about your board issues and miss all the bloody cricket though.

Gassage

Oh, by the way, if anyone loves fine art, the Pav has the world's greatest and most valuable collection of sporting art. Really worth seeing. A highlight is a painting of a test in 1800s where all of the King's mistresses are featured and twas very contraversial back in the day.

Great idea @Gassage & for a very worthy cause

Come on cricket lovers...this is a one off chance for something like this... let's kick it along (even if Middlesex are our old rival enemy)

I bid £200

Does this 'auction' have an end date ?

I hate cricket, but @gassage, that's a fantastic and generous move, you're a star!

Alnico

Absolutely Stunning Offer.

Totally lost for words.

Gassage

Shall we say midnight on Boxing Day?

Guys, it isn't really much of a generous gesture- more so a privilege I can share.

 I assume you're a brown cap? LOL

Steady o'' chap............Essex for my sins my dear boy ...perhaps not as mortal as Surrey in your eyes though

Gassage

^^ hahaha! I am a-political when it comes to the counties.

I just want Shropshire to do well and we did last season, but we have the best batting side in the Minors at the mo.

Gassage

Dates are as below.

Please bid as this isn't about raising funds for @alnico - it's cos I have no mates to go with so I buy my friendship for the matches.

Jun 16	TBC	Sussex	Lord's
Jun 23	TBC	Somerset	Lord's

Oh yeah- re auction....

Will you be dishing out any 'extras'?

Very droll-  the crustless smoked salmon sarnies in the Committee Room are worth a review on Trip Advisor alone...

If the people concerned want to go around the Lord's Musuem that's easy to arrange on the day.

True enough, perhaps, but a fine, imaginative and fabulous gesture.
