More importantly, what did he fix for you, Jennie?
He fixed it for me to be an auctioneer.
From the age of 5, I had semi-stalked Jim with bi-monthly letters, suggesting all kinds of interesting ideas.
I suggested he fixed it for me to be a one man band.
I suggested he fixed it for me to become Winnie the Pooh's best friend.
None of these ideas were successful. Eventually, my dad identified that I just wanted to be on TV. We tried to think of a boring idea they hadn't done for a while..and the auctioneer letter was born.
I ended up doing an auction at a charity gala in front of Prince Edward. I got a big pink dress made for me and felt like a princess.
I also remember having quite a large crush on the camera man, because he was nice to me and made me laugh. He was also pushing 50. I was 7. I still have a thing for older men.
