It could be you, but it WON'T

I know I've gone on about this before, but I really think the National Lottery is one of the worst things ever to happen in this country.
People have given up trying to improve themselves and aim for a better life. Now they just sit in front of the telly twice a week waiting for their numbers to come up, and their dreams to come true. They’re spending a huge percentage of their earnings on hope and all they have to show for it are slips of paper in their wallets and disappointment every Wednesday and Saturday. (or 5 times a week if they do EuroMillions)

In times past, pensioners with gambling problems were hidden away in bookies, now they’re in front of me in the queue everytime I pop to the corner shop.

Now I've got that off my chest I can hopefully sleep in peace.
