The torment of my @FT colleagues for a good cause - our financial literacy charity @FT_FLIC - is almost over, but you still have time to bid for lunch with your favourite journalist. Bid by 8pm UK time Sunday 28 January at https://t.co/bZTDHmojeV

[Martin Sandbu @MESandbu]

Ok twitterverse, time to dig deep in your pockets - you are missing out on a great opportunity to (a) help a very good cause (b) have lunch with moi, and (c) spare me the ignominy of ending up last.

Big news - you can short-circuit the auction and secure lunch with me (or one of my brilliant colleagues) right now for a mere £10,000 for our excellent @FT_FLIC charity. Come on, you know you want to…

[leylaboulton @leylaboulton]

It's enough to make your head spin: bidding is now closed for @gilliantett after a kind soul made the first £10k donation to our @FT_FLIC charity to secure lunch w/her in time for Christmas. Not too late for you to do the same, or to just bid at https://t.co/bZTDHmojeV

OK Twitterati (as I will always think of you), bid early and bid often, especially for a (not free) lunch with an economics commentator lingering way down the bid table.
