Won the Lottery but no-one wants to pay out!

Thought my luck was in with the lottery this week as I won £192, the most I won since it started way back in 1991.

Then the fun began trying to cash it in as most corner shops doing the lottery did not have enough money (though I think some did have the money, but lied, thereby getting rid of me).

Even the supermarkets did not keep large sums of money in the till, as they emptied it out regularly when it gets too high, for security reasons.

Eventually I found a post office that did the lottery, and got paid out. Phew!

So it seems they like to take your cash when you buy a £2 ticket, but getting paid out between £100 to £400 cash is quite a difficult task.

Oh, by the way my luck ran out today, as I had to replace to front broken springs on my car and wait for it, it was £199. Coincidental or fate?

You could not write this stuff (well I can)

Look on the bright side, it only cost you 7 quid to get your car fixed!
