Becks' tickets go for £100,000

A bidder has offered more than £100,000 for a pair of tickets to the Beckhams' World Cup party in an online charity auction.

An offer of £103,100 came in on Monday, four days before tomorrow's closing date for the sale in aid of the NSPCC.

The buyer of the tickets will be able to join the stars for a glittering bash at David and Victoria Beckham's Hertfordhire mansion on May 21.

The England captain and his pop star wife are throwing the Full Length and
Fabulous Ball as a send-off for the England team.

The tickets are the star lot in the NSPCC's Dream Auction. Other lots
include a shopping trip to Harrods with Liz Hurley and the chance to sing on stage with Bryan Adams during his summer tour.

In all there are 1,000 lots up for grabs, with all proceeds going to the children's charity.

The online auction is taking place on www.dreamauctionfullstop.com and was launched with a celebrity gala at London's Royal Albert Hall.

The NSPCC hopes to raise £10 million from the sale.

Gwyneth Paltrow and Stella McCartney are on the charity's organising committee and have persuaded many of their famous friends to donate lots.
