I play the lottery a bit. Not every week but every now and then and sometimes I even buy a scratch card. I know the likelihood of winning is very minimal but for those hours after I’ve bought the ticket I get to wonder if I might just be the winner and I get to think about all the things I would do with the prize! Even though I haven’t won yet, buying that little bit of hopefulness is worth it for me!

If I can’t sleep I spend the time thinking what I’d do with a lottery win. It’s a trick I learned from my Mum! I mentally spend different amounts of winnings from the modest to the ridiculous and it sends me back off to sleep with a smile on my face. If I won a thousand pounds I know we’d have a blow out holiday! £100,000 and it would be all for the mortgage! A million and I have different ideas for different moods and for £50 mil I have a whole charitable (and of course a small personal) plan that could change the lives of thousands upon thousands!

So, I probably won’t win but if you’re in it then there is always the chance! Tomorrow night on the Euro Millions there is a REALLY big incentive to play! There will be 100 guaranteed winners in the UK of a MILLION POUNDS! I’m definitely buying a ticket!

Take a look at this video made by Camelot UK Lotteries just for a bit of fun! They’ve lined up 100 butlers for the 100 winners should they so wish to employ one! Not sure I’d be employing a butler but I’d definitely start interviewing for a cleaner and I’d find someone to regularly do my hair and nails!

All I really want is about £350k! (Although I wouldn’t turn down the mil!) That’d buy me the house I want outright and allow me to treat my Mum a bit! Fingers crossed then!

I have not been paid to write this post.
