Bidding begins on 'entire life' - Update

An ex-pat who decided to make a clean break after splitting with his wife has so far attracted 70 bids for his "entire life".

Ian Usher, from Darlington, who emigrated to Australia six years ago, is selling his house, friends and job on internet auction site eBay.



The 44-year-old said he hoped to earn about £185,000 for his Perth lifestyle.

At the time of posting the highest offer was just over £1,000,000.
