Euromillions

[PapaLazaru]

Oh my, it has rolled over again.

Tuesdays jackpot is estimated at £106,000,000.

I have just bought two tickets and I promise that if I win, I will set up a charity and stick £50m into it and spend the rest of my life giving it away.

 

[PapaLazaru]

Time to add more credit and buy some off of the website.

I won £9.30 on Tuesday so am rolling my winnings back into it.

 

[PapaLazaru]

matched a whopping 1 number in total -.-

That will no doubt happen to me on Tuesday.

 

[PapaLazaru]

Estimated jackpot for Fri 8 Jun 2012 is:

£126,000,000

 

[PapaLazaru]

I did not win...you guys raised my hopes up for no reason!

Have you just come back from the future?

 

[PapaLazaru]

We should do an OcUK syndicate - sure it won't help the chances that much, but still could be interesting!

I promise to pay you the sum of one million pounds if I win, as long as you promise to do likewise.

*Proof of purchase required.

Not even one number, so much for my dreams of owning my own plane. Slamming myself into a hillside in a spectacular fireball will have to wait.....

Same, though I was hoping to do it in a Bugatti Veyron Supersport.

any news on winners?

One from the UK and one from Belgium split the pot.

So then chaps, the biggy is coming up this Friday.

£105,000,000.000 jackpot, plus 100 guaranteed UK millionaires!

I have just purchased 5 lucky dips for myself and the good lady which is the most I have ever spent. One million will be enough for me to leave work and go into the property letting business.

 

[PapaLazaru]

I'd set up a charitable trust and whack £30mio into it.

This is my plan but I have decided to bung in half of it. I imagine it would be great fun spending the rest of my life giving money or buying / building things for people that really need it.

 

[PapaLazaru]

Don't understand why people buy 10+ tickets i mean what is the point really.

Ten times the chance of winning maybe?

 

[PapaLazaru]

If you won something substantial, it would probably be a phonecall rather than an email, arraging a meeting with them or something.

It is actually an email. I read an article a couple of years ago about this guy who won £12m or something and he and his family were just about to go on holiday when he checked his emails. It told him the figure right there.

 

[PapaLazaru]

If I had an email saying I had won several millions, I'd probably assume it was that nigerian prince again..............

They still went on holiday as well. Though I suppose I would as well. Just with a bigger grin on my face!

 

[PapaLazaru]

The view seems nice, but the nation overall is just sucky and dear lord...the native accent is just...

Friendliest people I have ever met on my travels.

 

[PapaLazaru]

A tax on the stupid.

Some would say that spanking vast sums on a PC to post drivel on a forum is also stupid.

 

[PapaLazaru]

So what's your excuse?

Aw, you got me.

 

[PapaLazaru]

Finally logged in and I've won £2.80.

Woohoo! Get the beers in then.

I am doing my usual and waiting for the email. It has become a bit of a silly superstition for me.

 

[PapaLazaru]

I wonder if the layout and format of the email changes if you've won the big one?

I think I mentioned it earlier in the thread, but I did read an article about this guy that won £12m or so, and he said that the email told him how much he had won.

 

[PapaLazaru]

Any idea what the next jackpot will be?

Estimated £119m - http://www.national-lottery.co.uk/player/p/lotterydrawgames/euromillions.ftl

Two lucky dips for tonight, though I hope I have better luck than on Friday where in five lines I had ZERO numbers. Surely that level of poor luck deserves something?
