    That would be pretty galling. A group of IT consultants wins Euromillions and it's no-one from CUK.

            So how about a contractor stylee syndicate?

            £100 a head - all money goes on lucky dips - any winnings split between participants.

            What say you?

            Reckon we'd need at least five, and preferably ten people to make it worth doing.

            (Gah - lottery site blocked at clientCo - gambling!!)
            I was going to have a £100 anyway. How's it going to work?

              Working out logistics - doesn't' help that site is blocked at client co.

              Have registered new email address - will see if I can create a separate lottery account.

                If we all put in £100 each and win & then SimonMac and Eek are accidently killed in freak accidents involving falling piano's before they collect their winnings, do we split that among ourselves?
