wonder what the odds of matching 6 numbers AND the bonus are when you can only choose 6!!


Congrats Pete!

If you'd matched 6 they you would have won the Jackpot, not second prize. For second prize you have to match 5 plus Bonus Ball.

I see a flawed wind-up.

Never mind Pete. nice try.

BTW. Second prize was £85,939. Go Figure !!

Was that the ticket bought by Mr Winston Kaumba, the sole surviving relative of the recently assassinated leader of the Congo General Mtobo Kaumba, by chance?

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!



I actually don't think it is ............. I've just had a form to fill in and they now know where to bank the money!!

They say it will be in my account by close today, I couldn't figure out why they wanted my Debit Card details but they said it was to check my age, makes sense I suppose? They didn't want my signature, just that stupid number on the back by the signature?? Funny?? but they can't do nowt without my signature! So there!!

I'm RICH!!!! I'm going to come to a meet and buy you all a couple of pints!!

they would only need your account number & sort code to PAY MONEY IN, they would require your debit card details TO TAKE MONEY OUT

bye bye retirement fund

I'm sure you will be fine Pete - after all nobody would bother themselves with the ridiculously small amount that you keep in your account. What was it? a paltry £150,000?

Trying to work out if it really did go straight over peoples heads, or their posts were a cunning double bluff to Petes original one.

I think we need a new facility on Scoobynet. Subtitles for the hard of thinking.
