CLOSED - THANKS to all customers for the last few years

This could be profitable. There are something like 70m different number permutations for tonights Euromillions which, at 1.50 a ticket, would cost around 105m to cover all permutations.

The 125m jackpot should therefore yield an instant 20m profit unless there are multiple winners.

I'm just off to the corner shop now for my 70m tickets. Do you think he'll be OK with a cheque?

Oh dear, missed the instant fortune yet again. Didn't even win one of the 5,918,812 prizes in the UK. I shall console myself with a FEB and pot of tea.

I'll join you for a steaming cup of tea, Socs.

Must have been winning ticket no. 70 million and 1 as hilary didn't win either!!

I won....

No I didnt but at least I am back home from a few days in cloggyland. I am so fedup with travelling for work at the moment that last night in Gatwick I was nearly rude to a poor woman who was trying to get me interested in a free flight, she didnt understand I dont want a free flight I just want to go home and watch TV !

yours

angry old git of hastings ;-)

PS I am trying to get hold of abook called "is it just me or is everything shit" anyone read it? I hear its very good. Link

Spaceman

Don't be a angry old git, it only makes your hair fall out. If you buy second hand books, I have found this a useful website:

abebooks

Socs ;-)

most of my hair has already gone...

Thats link looks good, it has an Amazon feel about it, are they linked?

Well time for a quick FEB then its off shopping, hopefully I will get away with sitting in a coffee shop reading the paper while mrs spaceman does the actual shopping.

Morning all
Been fishing the past 2 days and bloody cold it was too.

Jeff, thats will be the weather ;-) where did you fish? what did you catch?

Spaceman
I don't know if there is a link with Amazon. I have used Abebooks twice and found them very quick. They seem to be a link between dozens of book dealers, both times the books turned up from different sellers. One just this morning, only ordered on Tuesday, pretty good service. Of course, with used books you have to rely on the accuracy of the description as to condition but I've had no grumbles so far.

Jeffers
Sounds like there is a market opportunity there. Do you think we could put together a group of investors, We could buy a stretch of river, put a big heated shed over it, stock it with a bar and cafeteria and rent out pegs at a fortune per hour.

Thursday we went to Elphicks near Goudhurst. I watched my rods from 7:30 to 12:00, went to the toilet and my son caught a 24lb carp on my rod, I was gutted as my previous best is 19lb.
Friday we went to Monk Lakes, between Linton and Staplehurst on A229. Just small stuff was caught.

Jeff, I bet your son was pleased, must have made his day especially as it was bigger that your best.

Jeffers
Sounds like Sods Law is alive and well and living in Goudhurst, commiserations to you and congratulations to your son.

I've just seen the sun, only briefly, but it is nice to know it still exists. FEB on the go, mines a double everything.

Nice bit of early morning sun here too Socs

None here Jeffmack, it's as grey as a grey thing.

Bright and sunny in Hastings, I am off out to see if its real !

That's another weekend over and done with, back to graft in the morning. Please put the kettle on about 16:30 tomorrow.

Goodnight all.

night Socco

Morning All! :>)
Brekkies on the go for anyone up and about.

Jeffie - don't tell me you didn't win the lottery draw this week?

No such luck Bunny, would have been great to escape the rat race
