      Yeah I hate those cup half full people, can't they see it's half empty? grrrr
      The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

      But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

          The jackpot is a 1 in 76,275,360 chance

          If it's drawn weekly you should scoop the jackpot once every 1 million 467 thousand years. It's just a matter of being patient!

              That's why I only ever buy on a rollover. Other than that, the risk:return ratio doesn't make it worth my while.
