Re: The lottery
The trouble is is that if you do win a large amount and distribute some of it to your family, no matter how much you give them they will complain that it isn't enough and why are you (the winner) keeping the lion's share.Choices are, don't do it, or keep it secret if you do win.

Re: The lottery
I don't do it any more, not since they added the extra numbers but sometimes do the Euro Millions. We do occasionally go off on a tangent worrying about if we would move and where to and what car or cars we would buy. I do know I would buy some new slippers as my ones are covered in paint splashes.11-09-2016, 01:21 PM

Never bother with the National Lottery, the odds against winning are astronomical.

Re: The lottery
Fifty bob? Which lottery is that? The UK national lottery is two quid - still far too much IMO especially as Camelot have decreased the odds of winning by increasing the number base.I'd rather play the Euro lottery (only occasionally if I think meself) - a greater chance of winning than the UK version and a higher cash price.
