Abz from the excellent boyband 5ive, has left the world of showbiz behind. He has moved to a farm in Wales with his partner Vicky and their journey was documented in Country Strife: Abz on the Farm on BBC2 in August. Abz and Vicky haven't a clue about farming and now they need to buy some essentials, you know, like topsoil and tools.
Abz decided to part with something so dear to him that he used it as a doorstop; his Brit award.
If you go to ebay right now, you too could be the best newcomer of 2000 and who wouldn't want that.
The product description on the site goes like this:
