Fancy your own battleship? Nothing like a couple of English eccentrics to out a big grin on your face and they don't come any quirkier than the pair selling a stonking great boat on eBay. It's the HMS Cornwallis, a model battleship, 5m long and correct in every detail - including the little sailor chappies on the deck.
Best bit is - lift the lid and two old codgers can fit inside. Bit snug, but they can take to the boating lake complete with pyrotechnics and sound effects. It's a masterpiece, a wondrous piece of kit! Puts your average pedallo to shame.
The top comes down so the guys are hidden inside. Smoke pours out of the funnels and the guns boom big time. For fun they've installed a water pistol and a ship's cat. Must have taken forever to build, no idea what it will sell for - bid stands at £2,995 at the moment, should go much higher. Sheer silliness in motion. Take a look - you won"t be disappointed!
