May I be the first to say, that if it is anyone on this Forum I have always been an admirer of their posts, trip reports, opinions and generosity.

Well, I was going to wait until I done my first "proper" UC TR before announcing that I had the winning ticket.

I'm sorry to report that you will have to split it 50:50 with me. I've got the winning numbers too ...

Well I just don't understand it.

Every week I put the numbers on and every week they pull the wrong ones out, even though I ask for the winning ones at the till.

Should I sue I wonder

I have nothing to say...

....except....

I didn't buy a ticket, does this reduce my chances of winning ?

Not if your very bestest friend ever in the whole wide world had the winning ticket

R-P

The whole lot was won by a couple ( ) who stay in Largs, Scotland - about 30 minutes drive from Glasgow. I'm racking my brain to see if I know anyone who stays there!

I did buy a ticket though (well 10) but lost one of them . When I heard that the winner was from Scotland, I was having palpitations and all sorts! Found my ticket this morning - but no luck (booooo!!!!)

I'm sure the News of the World will uncover who these people are, with their usual fearless investigative journalism.

Oh darn, just remembered...

You have to think though, if the town has been identified, and it's not a major city, there's probably little chance of those people's identities staying secret for long.

Not that it matters, because they could be on their way to Monaco by now...

They've identified themselves - they were interviewed on the news an hour ago.

If I won that much, you wouldn't see me for dust from the plane taking me far far away!!

Good, that will help me pinpoint where I need to mail the begging letters to...

A useless fact for you: a Scottish woman who won £35 million on the Euromillions before, stays 5 minutes away from my house. I do feel a tad envious when I pass her house!

They both seem very nice and very lucky!!

I'd settle for £5m please!

They must need their heads knocked together for revealing their identities though.

Yeah, the Irish woman (not me ) who won €115millions soon found out that life wasn't a bed of roses

With that much money, you could afford to employ a full time security team and office staff to deal with the begging letters.
