nice blog Al im a fellow scuba diver (became a PADI instructor back in 94) but havent had a splash for a while...some interesting stuff on yer blog mate. a good read for any left wing, subversive extremists who seem to be obsessed with reason, logic and intelligence...
Good read! Once the Euromillions was about £150 million (about 18 months ago) and I had 4 numbers and 1 star. (OK, so that's only 5 out of 7 numbers right) The two numbers I got wrong were both only 1 place out. So I won £150. What you're actually buying with your £2 ticket, is the right to enjoy the 'what if' scenario for a while. Even last night me and Freak made a provisional list of the races we'd be entering if we won the lottery; Dakar Cannonball Mille Miglia Etc.......
"So let’s see now, that makes a lottery windfall for the village of about CHF 16 million. That’s got to be worth a statue of me, or at least a dedicated fountain." Or combine the two. It could be on the lines of a certain well-known statue/fountain in Brussels. I can picture you now.
For CHF 16 million, I was hoping for something more like the Trevi Fountain in Rome, rather than the pathetic little thing in Brussels!
I'd be happy with £800 to buy a bike I've seen .... Git Why is it total knobheads win like that Norfolk Chav who won the lottery I always said I'd buy a top notch bike for my mates give them enough to insure it and tax it. Put big bow on it and leave it at their work or home as a surprise.
When I first went bodyboarding, my comment was "who would have thought three feet of polystirene and a rubber suit could be so much fun"
