Rumplestiltskin!

My house is on the market & had a chap come round to look at it.
In conversation he was quite open about the fact that 2 weeks ago all his numbers came up & he along with his syndicate won the jackpot.
Only downside (if thats the right word !!) was there were 19 others in the syndicate, they each got just over £200k......pretty cool.
I asked him what it was like seeing all the numbers tumble out of the machine in TV & he said that every single week he sits in front of the TV checking his numbers, but on that occasion he didn't ! He got a call from another member telling him they had won.
Keep playing.....it could be you

One of our customers at work was part of a winning syndicate.
He is a right chuff.

Also, when I worked for Halfords years ago, seemingly the manager of another branch won something like 200k, then two weeks later won several million on the jackpot.

I know two lottery winners. One was the dad of a girl I knew at uni - he won it a couple of months before he was due to receive redundancy pay and so kept it quiet. I think their winnings were in the region of £600k.

The second I don't really 'know' as such - they visited our house when we had it for sale. I think they'd won quite a large sum but still insisted on driving around in their Fiat Bravo. Madness. They didn't buy the house either, tight ba$tards

I had 5 numbers plus the bonus ball big deal all I ended up with were a few cars and nice holidays. It takes more than a couple fo quid to make a difference these days. Ive decide the lottery and other related games are for mugs.

My dad was part of a syndicate that won and he got 412k, he was 75 and most of the other members were oap's. he has invested half and is happily spending the other half at the moment although it really hasn't changed him - he still lives in his ex-council house and looks in the whoopsies at asda !!! he bought a new motor - a focus for about 10k and then spent 12k on a garage to put it in !! Still it's his to do what he likes with - and he did take me, the wife and kids to america last year.

I actually know a guy who was a phone a friend for someone on who wants to be a millionaire and he still drives an old audi 80 and still has the same job and house etc.


He never even gets the rounds in when we are out on the ****.


Why do these people go on these shows ?

Dream Weaver

I know a chap that won £9.5m. Unfortunately he's blown most of it on tasteless crap and whims

ajm

There's one in Portishead. £1.2m I think. Made the mistake of asking him what it was like when he found he'd won and I got a detailed account of what he did one week either side of the win. It was obviously a very practised performance and went on for hours. My eyes glazed over!

Last I heard he had split with the missus, so that's half gone , and the rest has gone on houses, boats etc. The usual!

Well the 'phone-a-friend' does not win any money does he

Whatever you do, NEVER select 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 as you will be sharing the £millions with 1,000's of others!!

The odds are the same as a random selection, just loads of peeps just do the first six!!

i took out a subscription with the lottery so i never have to buy a ticket each week, also they write to me to say if ive won and also deposit cash straight into me bank

won 3 x £10 in 16 months so far lol

only took out £1 each week on a sat though

my point of view is waste time spending loads just a quid a week dont hurt and ya never know......

Brun

I managed 5 numbers last Jan and scored £1700ish
Unfortunately there were no winners of the jackpot which was £5.5m - i was gutted to have been so close yet so far

I thought people might think I was thick.

thanks for clearing that up PG

PG

No, I know your thick.....just trying to cover up for you mate

I knew a guy who ran a syndicate. They discovered he had been playing the same numbers for himself as well when they won a couple of grand.

lightning101
