I hear you.
And apologies that you've taken it personally - that wasn't my aim. Yes, it's a slight, and yes, it's probably unfair. But it's rather tongue-in-cheek. Sorry if that wasn't clear.

I would have to be pretty dumb to take this site seriously
so MY apologies for writing that quite so seriously, I didn't really take it personally I just wanted to put the other side across :)

There are a lot of people who never stop to think about the odds, and many of those really can't afford what they're pouring into the game, especially since most people don't limit themselves to just one ticket- just as £52 a year isn't significant to me; twice, three times, four times that very soon builds up into VERY significant amounts!

You are right in what you say, I just don't like blanket statements because there's nearly always another side.

I'm normally very careful
because a closed mouth gathers no foot, and all that. This was just a blip :)
