And finally... golden nuggets

A gold nugget that is believed to be the largest found in England has failed to sell at auction.

With a guide price of £40,000, the 64.8g nugget sold for £12,000 before the online auction closed on Monday.

The nugget was found in Somerset in May 2023 in Shropshire.



Auctioneer Ben Jones, of Mullock Jones, said negotiations would now start with prospective buyers in an attempt to increase the price, BBC News reports.
