It sells for £2,000.

Sir Bradley Piggins is one of three pigs designed by Martin J Wall - who also painted the Ed Sheeran porker.
There's no messing around as bidding starts high and quickly breaks the £3,000 mark, but then slows.
The auctioneer comments that he's surprised by the response, and it sells at £4,200.
It's the first pig pun of the night, as Pepper Pig (covered in peppers, and nothing to do with George and co) is up for sale.
People are still a bit in shock after the last sale, but bidding builds gradually...and continues.
This one is taking a while but is over the £5,000 mark - and ends at £5,600.

Hang on...£6,000....£6,500.....
Ipswich Blue sells for an amazing £6,500.

It sold for a whopping £4,000.

I didn't see this one on the trail - it's a Shakepeare-tinged pig, with quotes from the Bard printed on.
It sells for £3,100.
Image source, Pigs Gone WildBidding started at £1,000... gradually rose to £2,000...and sold for £4,000.
It was backed by Suffolk Wildlife Trust and was voted the most popular on the trail by readers of the East Anglian Daily Times.
The auctioneers from Clarke and Simpson are on stage - bidding could soon begin on the 39 pigs being sold tonight.
The 40th pig has already been bought for St Elizabeth Hospice, with the help of the Ipswich Star.
The auctioneers describe themselves as "the Ant and Dec of the auction world" and are giving the low down on how the process will work - reassuring people not to be scared of sneezing and accidentally buying a pig.
Wow, it's busy here. Norman Lloyd, who has overseen the project, is welcoming guests to the auction and talking about how the money will benefit St Elizabeth Hospice.
Organisers say there are more than 300 people here.
The pigs are getting a final taste of freedom before they're sold off and taken to their new homes...

Hello and welcome to our live feed from Trinity Park, where the 39 pigs from the Pigs Gone Wild trail are being sold off - and hopefully sent to new homes.
In case you're wondering if I'm qualified to be your pig correspondent for the evening, I think this will answer your concerns.
There you go, enough said.
Pog the Pig isn't up for sale tonight, but Ed Sheer-Ham, the Hedgepig and Porkman Road are - and they'll no doubt be among the most popular with the crowd tonight.
So... let's get started. If you've got any questions or comments - feel free to send me an email at richard.haugh@bbc.co.uk

I'm signing off for the evening, but as we mentioned a little earlier, my colleague Richard Haugh is going to the auction tonight of the pig statues that were created for the Pigs Gone Wild, external art trail in Ipswich this summer.
He'll be keeping you updated with the live auction results and bring you all the gossip.
I wonder who'll bid successfully for Ed Sheer Ham, and get a personal dedication rom the Framlingham superstar himself?

Householders in the east of England flush away around 800 tonnes of "flushable" wipes and sanitary items every week.
That's according to Anglian Water.
The utility company is calling for an end to misleading claims on product packaging, saying the wipes don't break down like conventional toilet paper after going down the loo.
This week, a declaration has been signed by the UK and nine other countries outlining the water industry's position on products labelled "flushable".
So who pops the most wipes down the pan, in this region?
Northampton tops the tables, with 40 tonnes a week. This is how other cities and towns compare:
Clearing the blockages costs Anglian Water £15m a year. This cost, says spokeswoman Rachel Dyson, is ultimately added on to customers' water bills - and would be better spent elsewhere.
Quote MessageOnly the 3 'p's should be flushed - pee, poo and (toilet) paper."
