    Put your money on Dusty Carpet at 2.15 today. Never been beaten.

    A fella gave me two great tips today.

    First one is running in the 1.50 in Newmarket. Horse is called Ironing Board. Im putting my shirt on it.

    The other is called Strong Foundations. Running in the 2.10 in Cheltenham. Told me to put the house on it.

    Take all of your money and buy Mirr. Then sell it to Churches and stuff for 10 times what you bought it for.

    I'm open to correction but is that not the same as the odds?

    I got 3 numbers last night on Lotto Plus 1. The adrenaline, the ups and downs.. It's totally worth that €4. I won a scratchcard, so I'm only down €1 but I might win big on it. I'll let you know. ;) Played the Lotto once before and won a scratchcard then too. I'm getting closer to the jackpot! :D

    I didn't win this week either but that's no big deal, I don't expect to win every week. Any one week will do.

    I guess that shows how often I do the lotto. :)

    Using that calculator, the odds increase to 1 in 8,145,060 from 6 balls drawn.
