My OH was a good violinist and after he died and I was clearing stuff out I asked a local musician to take a look at his violin as no-one in the family plays and I needed to decide what to do with it. He told me all about the violin, but then said the bow was rare and sought after and had value.
So, after much thought, I decided to sell it as it is apparently a joy to play and it was just sitting in my spare room unused.
So a big international specialist string auction house has taken it on and it has been out there for the last 24 hours - auction ends later today.
Would you believe the latest bid of £950 - for a bit of wood!!!!
I am sure that my OH had no idea of its worth. It's quite exciting!
Will Labour backing rejoining be the “end” or the “making” of them??
