The last time I read about PBs the odds were 1 in 34k. You stand a better chance of winning if they were all in one acccount. Not always feasible I know.

Happy almost weekend!
Congrats for the win, I'm still waiting for my first.
There's no elections where I am this time.01.12.2020 - CC £16,839 / Loan £18,820 / EF £0

@badmemory 1 in £34k 😧 The only way I could get that was if I fluke won the big pb’s and reinvested 🤣
@joedenise I may change mine to reinvest. I will put the £25 into my heating oil pot when it lands…I’m about £500 short for the minimum order, so hoping the last of the tank keeps us in hot water for a while.
Thanks @jokono, happy almost weekend to you too 😁
We voted at lunchtime, it was very quiet (just us), but the ladies doing the registration said it’s always like that during the day. Hopefully it will pick up after working hours.Not all who wander are lost - J.R.R.Tolkien

Ours is in the village hall, so only a 5 minute job. If it was further then I’d be registering for a postal vote too.Where I used to live certain parties would gather around the entrance and almost bully voters as they went in, I used to hate that!Not all who wander are lost - J.R.R.Tolkien

When my mum was alive she would vote for whoever she thought might lose their deposit 😆 Or she would tell those who knocked on her door she was a floating voter but couldn’t get to the polling station and would end up with offers of lifts in exchange for a vote.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)4
