at least it was a few weeks ago :
...Todd Slaughter, the owner and organiser of The Official Elvis Presley Fan Club of Great Britain for nearly six decades.
Only now, at the age of 76 and in poor health, has Todd decided to retire: as soon, that is, as he has found the right person to become custodian of Elvis's legacy in Britain.
This week, the fan club — comprising stock, database, office equipment, social media accounts and more — was put up for sale by Omega Auctions in Merseyside, which specialises in music memorabilia. But the bidding reached only £32,000 — nowhere near the estimate of £50,000 to £100,000 — so Todd's hunt for a successor goes on.
There were several keen buyers, but when they realised that running the fan club was a full-time job taking up at least 40 hours a week, they melted away...
