Paris Single: The Scotsman: Diary
Bottling out OUTRAGEOUS Art indeed. Well, they were outraged at Christie's when Hunter Walker turned up at their sale recently. Going for a song was The Black Bottle by SJ Peploe, for a cool 470,000 pounds. Only problem was that Hunter was also holding The Black Bottle, which was going for a hot oe470.
