I'd be breaking out a seriously expensive bottle of whiskey and writing my resignation letter, and I don't even mind my job

I hope to god I don't know them

PizzamanIRL · 19-09-2014 09:32PM

It was me. None of you believe me because nobody ever thinks that someone they "know" wins it. But it was me.

groucho marx · 19-09-2014 09:32PM

Bottled water all the way if I win,no expense spared

Summer wind · 19-09-2014 09:34PM

Oh no I was just at the shop but I didn't do the euromillions cos I was in a rush. It could've been me!

In totallu unrelated news, anyone know where a lad could buy a solid gold mansion?

The_Valeyard · 19-09-2014 10:33PM

I'd buy an island, cool military uniform, snazzy beard, nice cigars, make myself dictator and die by revolution after a glorious 30years in power

I hope I won, I play online and the national lottery shut it down at night.

Hopefully an email tomorrow morning saying check your account and €86 million with change waiting for me...

The great thing about winning the Euro Millions is how many long last friends will be in contact with you again.

I would hire a big stage in my local town and give a Fr. Ted style 'Golden Cleric' speech. Look at me now!!!

Make sure its not from a Nigerian prince.

I swear I don't begrudge the winner but jaysus does hearing about an Irish winner always put me in bad humour for some stupid reason. Its ridiculous but I think I always feel a sense of 'Close, but no cigar', or, "well there goes my chance of winning for another year or two" because what are the odds of two irish winners close together (has actually happened last year IIRC though. 2 Irish winners only 2 or 3 months apart)

Or perhaps its simply a variation on the hopes raised then dashed after a few seconds one gets when one hears that the Irish Lotto winner was sold in your own town. The squirt of adrenaline until you scramble to check your ticket. Or when the adrenaline starts squirting as you tick off 3 then 4 numbers.....then........ah bollix

In other words I know its totally irrational but.......I'm in a very bad mood now

Actually, when one thinks about it. The bad humour thing is a good thing. Its probably the reason I am not a gambler (Minimum play every other lotto draw is the only gambling I do. Don't buy scratchcards. Don't bet on any sport or anything etc etc A gambler remembers the wins and forgets all the loses. I forget the wins and only remember the loses. Risk averse.

You've the same odds of winning it every week, no matter where the previous winner was from. You even have the same odds as if you picked the same numbers as the previous winner,.

Mrs Garth Brooks · 20-09-2014 04:21AM

And you'll play it next week, for sure, on Tuesday and Friday to be on the safe side thinking if they can win it, you can too and then not win it.
