I've asked him how much postage willl be before I make him an offer.  Be just my luck for the joke to backfire and get stuffed for 100 quid's postage...

I was very tempted to buy them for the comedy value alone...

I had wurdz and pikchurz in the prog a couple of times- back in the days when the Mighty One handed out Galactic Groats as encouragement.

I once factored in the ten quid I was going to get for my latest offering, when counting up how much cash I would have by a certain date.

Imagine my dismay when my pic didn't get published.  Ten quid short!

Oh right- that bloke.

Hm.

Has that happened before then?

I was thinking more along the lines of pin-ups than comic strips...

Cor- there's some *horrible* original Miracleman artwork artwork for sale on Ebay at the moment.

Given the copyright hell that Miracleman is languishing in at the moment, would now be a good time to sart selling prints of my own Miracle/Marvelman pieces?

Yeah, to be fair, I know a bloke who's mum won a few million a couple of years ago as well- I'd forgotten that.  Of course, he also went on TV saying that it'd ruined their lives- now that I DON'T get.   You've got millions in the bank- you'll never have to worry about pesky little things like paying for mortgages, medical care or getting your clapped out Ford Fiesta through another M.O.T. again.  It sounds terrible...

Bottom line- somebody has to win it.  Two tickets a week?  It's not even the cost of a pint.  If you actually made the effort to save two quid a week from somewhere else in your life (I don't know- drink one less pint, don't buy half a Subway sandwich, ride one less stop on your tube/bus, buy one less comic- whatever) and put it on the lottery instead, it might be the best investment you'll ever make.

In fact, now that I'm thinking about it like that, you'd have to be stupid NOT to play.

Usher- I bought multiple tickets when there was £125,000,000 up for grabs a while ago- but I had big plans for that money...

Noisybast- maybe you were just rubbing it in a little bit vigorously?  Think back- did it shrink again after a while?

;)

Just to be clear, I gleaned that amazing fact from casual browsing of the TV- not a book.  I'd no more buy a book on how to win the lottery than I would buy penis enlarging cream or second hand super powers...

Hive!

Actually, that's one of the most played combinations.  'Clever' people assume that ordinary mortals will think it highly unlikely that those particular numbers will ever be drawn (when statistically, they're just as likely as any other combination) and that by playing those numbers themselves, they won't have to share the jackpot if those numbers come up.

Fools.

Now this I'd pay to see.  In fact I will be paying to see it...

Wouldn't go with your spats for a start...
