If Von bought a ticket for Euromillions this week, and if it's us that's won the £111,000,000...I'll buy it for you as a birthday prezzie, Nobby.

Cheers - Phil. :)

I know it's hard to believe......But we didn't win. :o :o :o (Von hadn't even bought a ticket....so that saved £2.50 ?)

I mean....It was a million to one chance....(AND the blanking rest)....and with those those odds...it's almost a bloody certainty...For goodness sake, million to one chances come up nine times out of ten.

(I still miss Terry Pratchett)

Cheers - Phil. :)

Right ... have to do it the hard way.

Now if I give up buying Pendraken for ... let me see £170,000 divided by ... carry the one ... add in a half for the maid ... and 2 ounces of plain yoghurt ... which means if I leave at 3:10 and do 30 miles per hour, I win the marathon ... or Snickers as it is now sooo ... given that the cows are lying down (well it is Runcorn) I can buy the Centurion in about a years and a half.     :D

Well the wining ticket holder could buy an awful lot of toys with their winnings. A slight heart flutter as my e-mail had a notice from the National Lottery, but said to say it was only £4.00. Mind you that is the second week in a row we've won!

We've won the Postcode Lottery 5 times.

A tenner each time.

You have more chance of walking.out your front door, being hit by lightning twice AND picking up a gold bar than winning the lottery...

Well saved 2.5 squid Von

A Nigerian price has just promised me £150,000 for the loan of my bank account.
