Lottery question?

Just wondering if any of you have ever won any SERIOUS amounts of money on the lottery. If so, was it by lucky dip? Same numbers you'd used for years? Did any of you have some sort of feeling you would win?

    I won nearly £2k about 3 years ago. Not sure if everyone will class that as serious money but it helped at the time and spent it in one day(was pretty busy). Was on a lucky dip. The only thing is I told the guy at the petrol station where I got the ticket I would give him half of my winnings. DID I GIVE HIM HALF THE ££££££??????

    Ten years ago, a woman with whom I worked told me that her friend's mother (aged 75) in Cardiff had won £2.8 million on the Lottery and had given the ticket to her daughter in Bristol to claim the money for herself, because the mother had no use for it! Her daughter, a teacher in her forties, immediately gave up work.

    The most I've ever won was £164 for 4 numbers in 1995.

    I don't do the lottery but I do know a group of people at work, in a syndicate, who won a few thousand pounds each. And them there was another syndicate that spent more than they won.

    Consider it as a charitable donation whenever you buy a lottery ticket, especially if the lottery is meant to benefit the community! Returns if any should be treated as sheer luck and charity in the reverse direction!

    I won as part of a work syndicate (6 of us) about 7 years ago. We split about £3000, Would have been far nicer to win it on my own!!!
