ive been saying that for years, cap the winner at 3million, and increase the other prizes like you say more millions to winners...

hahaha, well i do love the wit on here ..
That's karma then, because on here we love the witless.
Now why didn't I think of that BeniWinning the lottery is quite simple.All you have to do is pick 43 numbers that won't be drawn out and then choose the other 6.
Simples.
I'm fully with you there, Margaret.
We've started investing in Premium Bonds and have already won two £50 prizes in 18 months, a damn sight more than we would have won on the Lottery plus we still have our original stake too.
On top of the prizes we have also managed to pay for most of the renovations to our house with money we didn't miss each month.
Hmmm, should a prominent local Councillor admit in public that his household finances are so sloppy that, what for most would be a large percentage of their income isn't missed, does that mean is unaccounted for? If the answer is yes, I do hope you aren't ever given responsibility for any of the Borough's outgoings!

13 years of Labour rule have left us in a shocking state....
It does surprise me that Premium Bonds aren't given more advertising as many of the younger people I know have absolutely no idea what they are. I was explaining it to my nephew over Christmas and he couldn't get his head round the fact that you can win a prize but still have your original stake too.
Investing in the country's fund will always be more attractive to me than Camelot's self-serving pot.
What about all the good causes then
What about all the good causes then
True, but I believe just over 45% of the total money paid in is paid back out. Quite high running costs in my book, and I would question how Camelot came to the brink of financial disaster whilst the directors have enjoyed enormous wealth increases since the lottery began.
How Branson lost his bid at the eleventh hour smells decidely fishy to me.
So do a lot of things if you go fishing
What about all the good causes then
That ..... needs taking with a bucketful of Salt ! Who exactly decides what a good cause is or isn't ? I'm pretty sure my ideas are different to others & therein lies the problem.
Some of the crochet, flash mob, swimming gala money was from the Lotto, topped up with tax payers' money.
You can't argue those aren't 'worthy causes'.
Could you?

Ah, you are using humour mode, a dangerous thing on AccyWeb you will be called to the office.

Most of us also have a brush, should we all sweep the streets too ?
Yes outside your own house why not? Unless you have no pride on the appearance of your home/business that is.
Now ya tell usNo one so have a riot
