Auckland's bear bar Urge is set for its third annual Slave Auction this Saturday, and has today revealed what's on offer for eager bidders. Start the bidding: Cindy and her 'slaves' The night is a big charity drive for OUTLine October, says the bar's co-owner Alan Granville. "We still have a number of items to be confirmed and we already have some 'silent' bids for lots," he tells GayNZ.com. Anyone wanting to make silent bids on any item can email urgebar@ihug.co.nz. The items listed below will be brought forward on the night by Urge's 'Slaves', who are sure to do everything they can to raise the bidding, Granville laughs.
