According to the
Christie's website, a buyer will be taking home
Charlotte Brontë's dolls' house after paying
£14,375 ($20,298) (buyer's premium included in that price) for it today. A final price well over the estimate, which was £5,000 - £8,000 ($7,060 - $11,296). We wonder whether the buyer decided to go for it because the house is a beauty or whether the possible Brontë connection might have had anything to do with it.
Treat her well, as they say.
And that's it for today as the news sites, blogs, etc. seem to be all about Obama today (and rightly so, we may add).
EDIT: An alert for British readers. The
Daily Mail today gives a Jane Eyre 2006 (Disc 1) voucher. The second disc's voucher appears tomorrow, January 22:
In each day's Daily Mail up to Friday January 23, we will be printing a voucher. Simply cut out this voucher and take it to your local branch of Tesco, WHSmith or Eason where in return you will be given that day's DVD.
