Sharing My World 17-03-2024
Here is my post for Share Your World, hosted by Di.
Have you ever been to an auction?
No. I’d be too scared that I’d scratch my head and accidentally bid on a Ming vase or a set of novelty bookends.
Were you ever in a school play or concert?
Not as such. In my second year at “big” school my form tutor was the drama teacher and we put on a little comedy play for the other classes. I played the disgruntled caretaker who tried the blow the school up at the end but failed.
In your working life, were you ever rewarded financially for your services apart from your salary?
We get an annual bonus.
How are you feeling today?
Okay, I guess ๐

Trying to blow up the school might be an even more taboo subject for school plays these days than the Nativity…

Yes, I thought that as I wrote the answer. Wouldn’t be allowed these days.

I can just picture the caretaker skulking around the school because there was no annual bonus! ๐

Auctions sound scary. The slightest shrug of a shoulder and you could be going to dinner with an Elvis impersonator. What a treat!

I can set your mind at ease re: auctions. At least here in Canada folks who intend to bid must sign in and usually get a number “paddle” which is a cardboard with a number on it. When you bid, you hold up your number. Even if paddles aren’t used you can’t buy anything without giving your number. So just don’t sign up for a number and you’re safe. ๐
You had a better role than I. In a high-school drama play I was the sister that was “touched by an early frost” or a bit demented.

I think these days people do get a paddle in the UK. But you do see people bidding with just the slightest change of facial expression!

True. The pros can get away with that — and they usually have a rapport of sorts with the auctioneer.
