    The hat is a bit ridiculous (though it seems she's dealt with it in a very good-humoured fashion), but anyone paying £50,000 is probably thinking of it more as a donation to charity than as an actual purchase- and anything that gets fifty thousand quid to UNICEF can only be a good thing really. Unless I'm wrong, and there really is someone out there who'd desperate to wear that hat at any price!

    I think Joan Rivers commented that it looked like an IUD :rotfl:

    What a shame. It was more entertaining watching that than watching the two-penny toffs getting wed a couple of weeks ago!
    Reason for edit? Can spell, can't type!

    I wonder if they cancelled all the bids to avoid having to pay fees to ebay?
