Just got 5 numbers up on the lottery and won £1,260 ! :lol:
If I'd got one more number I'd have won £1.2million. :cry:
I'd have been on the first flight out to Cyprus !

Laugh. Don't cry. You could have won nothing at all.

Enjoy your win. I would buy a flat screen TV and a new digital camera. Everyone else could buy their own drinks. :lol:

Funny feeling though, counting the numbers and thinking.....here we go ! This is it ! :shock:
To be honest I was happy when I realised I'd won the £1260 but then a bit gutted when I realised what one more number would have meant. :x
Started thinking that's my chance of winning it gone and you only get one chance. :cry:
I'm off to Skiathos in June and I owe £960 on the holiday. I'll use this to pay for that and split the rest between the two kids. :wink:
Generous aren't I ? :roll:
Happy now though (well I have had a celebratory drink, as you do) :wink:
Happy Days, Gary :D

You jammy so & so, wish I'd got 5 number last week on the Euro Lottery, I'd be a multi millionaire now :lol:

So you'll be buying the drinks when you get over here then, at least the first round anyway :wink:

If it makes you feel any better, you weren't as close to the big one as you might think - the odds of matching 5 numbers correctly are around 1 in 55,000, but your chances of getting all 6 shoot up to 1 in 14 million (just off the top of my head! :wink: )

1200 quid's not to be sniffed at though!

Laugh at it Gary, the most I ever won was about £600 and the week before it was about £1,500 so anything is better than nothing so they say.

Must admit I would be a bit pig sick at only one number out as well. :wink:
