Lois Curtis, aged 49, a single mum from Haywards Heath, is selling herself on eBay in the hopes of finding a “rugged, gorgeous, Greek guy.” She posted her tongue-in-cheek ad, titled “Female Size 10” on Sunday night. She describes herself as being “in pretty good condition” with good bodywork and a sense of fun”. Perks of snapping her include having someone who “cooks and cleans, no warranty… fuses have been known to blow.”

Her ad went viral as soon as she placed it as men from Australia, Puerto Rico and the States started responding with bidding going as high as 205 pounds. Unfortunately, Greek men, probably watching the election results on Sunday, did not take wind of her offer of herself.

She said she placed the ad because it has always been her dream to go and live in Greece.
