Bradman bat sells for $18,000: A BRITISH collector snapped up a cricket bat used by Donald Bradman for $18,000 at a Sydney auction. Great cricketer, great bat and a good price.

Eighteen thousand Australian dollars? That's only about five pounds seventy-three, isn't it? Bargain.

I'm sure the Australians will hate the fact that it's gone to a British buyer. Which is nice. Now if we could just get them to relinquish the Ashes so easily we would be laughing!

We're going to burn it and call it the Ashes part 2.
