So if you buy 18,335 tickets a week for the next 80 years job should be a gooden????Originally posted by Bagpuss View PostThe 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!

I think my reactions would have been "It's about time you turned up you c**t", and "tulip, two weeks without pay". But then, I'm a miserable so-and-so.
