An art dealing fortnight in numbers

Thought you might like a numerical summary of the last couple of weeks here at Philip Mould & Co, as a little insight into what I've been getting up to during the Masterpiece fair and Master Paintings Week:
- Pictures (and drawings) viewed: 867
- Trips to the library: 2
- 'Sleepers' identified: 4*
- Bids placed: 5
- Successful bids: 0 (drat)
- Pictures sold: 16
- Miniatures sold: 13
- Sculptures sold: 1
- Talks given (above): 2
- Blogposts written: 22 (below average, apologies)
- 18th Century clocks acquired: 1 (always wanted one)**
- Autograph requests: 2 (most curious)
* A very slim ratio: excellent cataloguing everyone!
** and it's amazing how little such things cost these days. Can 'brown furniture' get any cheaper?
