There
were 20 lots for people to bid on in the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Hereford and Worcester
Money Marathon appeal.
They ranged from a signed baseball hat belonging to Wimbledon champion
and tennis babe Maria Sharapova, to an ironing board used by presenter
Mike George during an extreme
ironing session.
Bidding was fierce, both online and on the phone, and the final total
raised was Β£5485.
Many thanks to everyone who bid and especially to those who bid the
most.
