"I shall be switching to Euromillions in October. "

Which is also £2.00 per go.

100% increase...just a bit above inflation then !

After an initial slump from the "protesters", lottery sales will soar again and Camelot's profits will go up as well - remember you heard it here first.

When no-one else can understand me
When everything I do is wrong
You give me hope and consolation
You give me strength to carry on
And you're always there to lend a hand
In everything I do
That's the wonder
The wonder of you

Well time to get smartened up, have a good afternoon all.

I will stop buying tickets even though i have had same numbers since day one. ill put my 3 quid a week in a pot instead and hopefully have enough for a short break next year !!! ive always dreamt of a big win but hey ho i refuse to pay double ticket price on the very slim chance that i could win a decent amount.

Its not the National Health lottery. None of the cash goes to the NHS, instead money goes to health charities.

Arksided, thought you were serenading Camelot

[jno]

ah, I remember all thsoe people vowing to give up smoking when cigarettes reached £1 a pack.

[Arksided]

aelmpvw, well unfortunately, I'm not in charge of the balls, I'd give 'em a tweak for a few million and pretend to be a DR if it'd work.
