Default Have you ever won it big on the Nation Lottery?
By that I mean, over £30.00

The most I 'won' ever in three years playing the Lottery was £20.00.

Not sure if you can still do them, but years ago, probably more than 10, i used to do "hot picks" where you choose 2, 3, 4 or 5 numbers, and if they come in you win. I once won £450 on a hot pick 3.

Can I have some of yours and your friend's luck, please. I knew my one and only £20 was a poor 'win'.

When my brother was at uni and broke, he put a scratch card in my Dad's birthday card because he couldn't afford a proper present... and my Dad won £50.

Reminds me of that guy who was at uni. He saw his sister putting the Lottery on and asked what was she doing. She said, 'putting the lottery on'.

He said, can I try. Did his numbers first time. Won Set For Life first time. A whopping £10,000 a month for life and he's only 21 years old.


Massive luck.

Me, too. But even £20,000 would help a great deal.

I have won a sky diver before but I don't play now

I mean imagine a game where you had to pick 6 letters from the alphabet, that would be bad enough

and this is double the size of the alphabet and more

mugs game

would you back a horse that was 45,057,474/1 to win
