 Just double check you are on the right week eg valid 12 April - 18 April
 if you have 2 £150 and the post below states that todays number is £150 - it means you have WON and if you have a lucky horshoe on the same date your prize will be doubled (just look at the details given on the bottom of the card).
 so hopefully :beer: :j :T0

            Thanks Essex Maid - I am in work now and the card is in the house. This will drive me mad all day not knowing.If dogs don't go to heaven, then I want to go where they go. :A0

            Also, I bought the Mail on saturday, but put it in the recycling. Does anyone know what the question or answer was? I am willing to pay for saturday's paper if anyone has it. Been doing the questions on the scratchcard and really don't want to mess it up at this stage !!!!!!!!If dogs don't go to heaven, then I want to go where they go. :A0
