It wouldnt have been shite if you'd have won a million though would it?

Youve won £29 so youve made a profit from only a few quid, so its all good.

oh, without a shadow of a doubt, it would be the best thing since sliced bread if Id come up trumps I just remeber when it first started it was a tenner for three numbers, a ton for four numbers then up dramatically from there. Seems to have really come down over the years. Cant grumble though eh.

Ive got 4 numbers a couple of time, was something like 80 odd quid and 60 odd quid. I assume the amounts will depend on the total prize fund (the amount of people who play that week). If less people play, the less youll win etc.

You could stop working if you won a million and live of the interest if you really wanted too i suppose. I bet you could get £50k a year interest on that easliy enough, at least.

I've got 4 numbers loads of times and it's ranged between £33 and £109.

I got 5 numbers once and that was only £1900, which is absolutely shite for the odds, lol!
