The titles of Earl of Bucky Doo, The Duchess of Dreadnought and the Lord Skilling will be available to the highest bidder at the Bridport Radio Christmas party - 21nd December '07 . The eligibility for these esteemed offices will determined solely by the quantity of cash supplied in unmarked notes - in the true democratic tradtion of New Labour. Our researchers are currently determining the full extent of the feudal rights associated with these positions - but we believe the first brace of pheasants to arrive in Framptons and the first pint of the new year pulled in the George may well be the hereditary rights of the Earl of Bucky Doo. The Lord Skilling appears to be entitled to the first bud of the hempen harvest - not quite sure what this means but we'll let you know as details become clear. In the meantime, start saving up your fivers - it looks as if bidding may become quiute intense.
