Lottery Fever in Nottinghamshire
Over the last few months, there have been a couple of large ottery wins in Nottinghamshire. The last one is reported here.
There has been the usual mutterings about regional bias, but it’s just a statistical freak.
Of course now, a lot of stupid people in the county will play, as they think the area is favoured by the draw.
I never play the lottery or scratch cards, as they are just a tax on the poor and the stupid.
I agree with you, Lottery is indeed a tax on poor and stupid. Lots of times I have been newsagents and seen someone buy £10.00 of scratchcards and then win a small amount on one of them, perhaps ten or twenty pounds, and just plough it back into more scratchcards!
