some people have played the lottery from day 1 and there people who have played once or twice and won. the jackpot is to big and it should be reduced to 40 million at the most. it all about boasting how they won and rubs it in to people that keep on playing and only win between 5 pounds and 10 pounds every 6 months and if you getting begging letters it its all down to you not anyone else for putting yourself on tv or in the papers. and what gets me they stay in the uk when there better place to llive. ive reduced what i spread on the lottery now and when i hit 40 in the next 6 years ill be shutting my lottery account down has i ain't wasting any more money. has most people have now packed it in and Camelot are losing money why because you match 123 numbers and you get only a 5 or 10 that ain't going to get you far. with the price of living.
