    Euro millions lottery win!

    Whooooooooooooooooooooo - hoooooooooooooo! Bought a ticket 10 minutes before it closed and been notified of important news by the lottery.

    Yep, they've credited my account with the winnings!

    All £16.80 of it!
    I couldn't give two fornicators! Yes, really!

        They never used to send out e-mails, so you can imagine what I was thinking a few weeks back when I got an e-mail to say that they had some "exciting news" about my ticket - having never received any e-mails for £10 wins before.

        I also wondered what they do for the big winners. Do they call you straight away, send you a custom e-mail, or just the same "exciting news" one.

            You would get a phone call on Monday Morning asking you to come in with your Passport and / or some other forms of identification. I don't think email would be warranted if you hit the big one.
            If your company is the best place to work in, for a mere £500 p/d, you can advertise here.

              Hmm I think they are automated but damn that would be a nice phone call! tulip! Imagine - Monday morning - 9am - as your about to get off the train, or motorway to go to your place of work..................."Hello Mr Smith - This is So and So calling from The National Lottery, Camelot - We are please to tell you...."

              Lol - than you stop and think - Get out of it! Its your mate on a windup! Until you check the ticket...................so what do you do then once youve arrived at the car park or station next to work?

              - Go into work smug and tell them you quit

              - Go into work and just be smug and get yourself fired

              - Turn right around and go home

              - Go in to work and tell everyone you have won the jackpot and good bye!


              Personally - Id probably turn around and go home.

                    I once truly believed we'd won the lottery jackpot, for a few moments. I was only a kid and was checking the numbers for my Parents' ticket. I diligently wrote down the numbers as they were announced, then when they did a recap I watched in stunned amazement as every number in front of me was read out. It was only when I realsied we had all 6 numbers AND the bonus ball that I twigged.

                    True story.
