A bloke who used to work for DH said if he won the lottery he would half his winnings with his wife then tell her to b * * * * r off and if he ever saw her again he would take it back off her...think he was serious grin

Also may it give them a great deal of pleasure

Littlenellie, that's the only reason I'd have liked it as well. There would be loads to give to everyone who needed it - and there are so, so many that do. Really, when you come down to it, all we need is just enough not to have to worry, don't we? Enough to pay the bills that come in and to be able to have a holiday now and again - nothing grand. I've never had much and never will, but it doesn't worry me. I've got just enough! smile

I hope they enjoy it. I would love to win money like that. Think of all the good you could do and how many people's lives you could change.

Oh and good luck to them.....and they have fun with it.

HA HA HA , Never thought of that one , me too , mind himself always buys them so bet he would have given little old me , a few coppers to keep me quiet .cheesygrin

I would hate to win that amount of money....I would have to give it away,share it and use it to help other people who need a helping hand....bit like the secret millionaire....that would give me a great deal of pleasure ,I would like just enough to be comfortable and not have to worry about money....and have a holiday

I agree, Nonu! I also wish it was me, but then I'd need to have bought a ticket...confused!

Just read that the people who won the 148 million live about 20 odd miles from here , not that thats got much to do with the price of cheese . What must that be like , mind boggling , suppose give plenty away to progeny, set them up nicely . May the people enjoy their money ! smile
