My date with Mr 'eBay' Lonely Heart

Here I am sitting in a restaurant, eating steak with Mr Lonely Heart.
Mr Lonely Heart is Adam Croot, a 39-year-old insurance operations director who this week offered a very strange lot on the internet auction house eBay. He didn't offer a tricycle. He didn't offer a duvet cover. He offered himself.
Two months ago Adam was in love. He was dating a woman called Laura and together they booked a holiday at the Couples Swept Away Resort in Jamaica (does he know it sounds like a disaster movie?).
A few weeks later Laura called the whole thing off and Adam was left with a broken heart and two £1,200 tickets to Paradise for Valentine's week in February.
Most men would have wept, or got very cross. Adam put the holiday up on eBay, and included himself in the lot.
