4 numbers with the 5th and 6th on my other line was closest I ever got
nothing since and that was 2 years ago, only buy occasional tickets tho now... pointless one of the syndicates at work got 5 + bonus a month or so ago, £20k each oh and when i worked at Wh Smith I sold a £100,000 winning scratchcard.... Guy didn't even buy me a drink |

won a tenner about 15 times, four numbers 6 times (most being £81) used to do it religeously, until about 2 years ago, now just do it if i know there's a roll over and if i remember.
altho after i stopped regularly 5 of my numbers came up. i missed out on £800. i reckon i'd have been more annoyed than grateful if i'd had my money on. i mean, 5 out of 6 numbers and i dont even get a grand? one more and it would have been a 3 way share of £5m. |

I've stopped spending my pocket money on it now, after 5 years or so of fruitless ticket checking.
Thinks: If I'd saved all I spent on tickets, I could have bought a second SV. Hmm - a nice bronze one maybe? |

Don't do the lottery, it's a fool's tax!

I got 4 numbers once & won £75 (if I remember rightly)... I've won a few tenners... But that's about it
Hardly play anymore... Only if there's a roll-over or a double roll-over - then I stick a tenner on (when I remember) |

I always doubt anything with such long odds.
There again an ex work colleague won £8.8 million a couple of weeks ago! |
