Oh of course

A nice surprise in the "bookies" today
As I "collected" my win of 1768 quid - one of the ladies said:- You've won more
I asked "how what" as the "ticket" showed 1768 ? She replied! Our shop pays better odds than other "places" I received 1898 quid (130 quid extra)

I DEFINITELY can't turn that down

Wow, that is really turning a corner

Wednesday's draw = back to normal

Mine = 5 - 20 - 33
They pulled 4 - 19 - 32


That would have given me 122 quid win, as 33 was my 4th number

Oh well, it was fun while it lasted

I can't actually remember the last time I hit 3 winning numbers
Could be ? easy 9 plus years ?
so I ain't holding my breath

and winning the Postcode lottery biggie = as much chance of Moses finding rocking horse sh---it! and plaiting chaff!!

Know that feeling

Don't know if I've said this before ?

My luck is THAT bad! If everybody in the country was on the "dole"
I'd be the only silly bugger to have a job

as Albert King said "If it wasn't for bad luck, I'd have no luck at all"

I don't actually believe in luck/bad luck as such, that's how "gods" were thought upto account for bad crops etc etc..

It's just the powers of the universe love to "pick on me"

I can see that, Karma likes to kick you in the teeth sometimes

In THAT case then I've only got 8 teeth leftall on bottom deck. SO my luck should change to good soon

I hope so

Bloody didn't for tonight's draw

Nuts!

Need more whisky

I think you've had you luck for the next few years

and

PS: to email
Apart from Civ 6

When "normal" folk have a "drink" at evening/night etc
It's either with friends in the house or watching something on tv etc

My pc is upstairs in the "box-room" next to my bedroom

I can't be bothered to keep going downstairs with a glass, to get another whisky <doh<

SO! I have the "bottle" in my bedroom BUT! Alas I don't know "how" big a gulp/sI'm taking ? compared to pub single/double measures etc

SO! There goes the lapse of memory!
was I in Hootoo last night

with you it's either Civ or knackered hootoo

I NEVER go over the top!

My time of drinking whisky and having fun, was in the 70's/80's Local pub after hours or in town and local night clubs (all 2 of them)

So nowEven though supping from a bottleand NO measures I know where my limits are and don't go anywhere near them

Can't remember the last "hangover" I had ? Way before 1990 at least

I rarely drink, glass of wine maybe but that's it
