So, 100 Guaranteed UK millionaires, and £105m Jackpot.

Who's bought a few tickets? I recieved an email from Camelot this week that they're expecting a massive spike in sales today so get in early!!

Got to be worth a punt for those kind of numbers!!

Just remember that money doesn't buy happiness.

But by god it helps.

I heard a saying which I rather like from a mate of mine: the Lottery is a tax on people who are bad at maths.


I've got 5 tickets.

I think so long as you don't go in thinking 'I will forever be happy now I have money', it is definately one less thing to worry about!

I have no interest in buying happiness, I just want to rent it for a while.

I can't even begin to imagine what would happen if I won. I'd probably keep going to work for a while afterwards.

People who say "money doesn't buy you happiness" don't know where to shop!

The normal raffle odds are quoted at approximately 1/9.5m for a Friday draw on the lottery website. So, if there are 100 prizes tonight, then it brings it down to 1/95000 of winning £1m for a £2 bet.

Obviously they'll be selling more tickets than a normal draw, but it actually might be the first lottery that makes sense, purely from a mathematical point of view.

I never bother with the Euro Lotto as it's bad enough some Lotto lout and ballet school having my Pound without some pillock from Belgium getting my £1.50 instead. rolleyes

First time I've ever put money into the lottery. Probably the last time as well.

I'd still join the Navy but I'd leave my current job immediately and travel around a bit.
