Bought one in our Co-op in the late 80's/early 90's, really cannot recall but Our Kid was just a nipper.
Won a tenner, incredibly. What were the chances? Pretty much nil to getting struck by lightening really, therefor it was the last. Back in the 70's, I went out with the lads, popped a massive Fiver on ( I vaguely recall since I was likely half-cut) Roulette and won a lot.but we spent that on a good Stakis steak dinner and that was the last time. One of my mate's sisters was a pit-boss in the casino, and she told me that was that and best walk away. I did.
Yesterday, thanks to this thread, I asked the staff I know very well at the Tesco fag/Lotto check-out if they could recall a meaningful winning event in the 7 years they have been there. None could.
You always see single-celled repeat offending Lotto trailer-trash bringing in their tickets to check...nil response of course. Hell mend them. I relish their cyclical desperate Food-Bank lemming-driven misery. Smelly lazy no-good oxygen thieving wasters. Some of them have the cheek to look SWMBO & I up and down since we go out dressed smartly, polish my shoes, and actually shave. Well, I shave.
