Camelot-latest
just seen on a news flash, that Camelot is not only putting the ticket price up to £2,
THE GREEDY BARSTEWARDS ARE NOW CUTTING BACK ON THE MONEY THAT THEY GIVE TO GOOD CAUSES!!
Seems like they are hell bent on killing the GOLDEN GOOSE
sooner they go the better
Last nights ticket--nothing again, as usual. Called into the shop this morning and bought a £1 Health Lottery ticket.
CAMELOT, GET STUFFED!!!!!
Colin.

The best bet is Premium Bonds, in the draw every month, top prize £I,000,000. not won that Yet, But I get a win nearly every month , just had another one this week. and you do not lose your money.
Over the last six years I have won over £5,000, I reinvest them in new bonds and they come up as well.
So Camelot stuff yours, I am on a winner every month and cannot lose my money.
Cheers
Brian.

can't lose?
Good morning Capn. Seems like a good idea! Normally we cant win an argument, but we might just try your suggestion.
Perhaps it is possible that Camelot are 'going down the pan' like so many other businesses
Regards and thanks
Colin
