So it wasn't you that won the £121 Euro Millions then?

Definitely not me.

Don;t think its me, but I did 'win' £5.20 two weeks ago.

Reason I can afford a 'new' car is by not wasting money
on gambling. ;-)

I don't consider it gambling if I can afford to lose.
But if you did know the person that won £121 Euro Millions would you call them an idiot for gambling ?
While waiting for glue to dry I was watching roulette on TV last night, just as black 28 came up twice in a row.


The chances of it being anyone I know, even vaguely online, are
shrinking by the hour.

My mother oddly was pretty lucky with such things. Even to the point of
drawing her own ticket once at a raffle. Sadly, I didn't inherit that sort
of luck.

luck is an odd concept.
