Array ( [sid] => 123361 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => NEARLY RICH [time] => 2006-07-18 06:49:46 [hometext] => WILL KEEP TRYING [bodytext] => I sit with my ticket the lotteries on,
I dont think i'll win, its just for fun,
my heart starts to pound, hang on a minute!!
my numbers are rolling, am I going to win it,

All my numbers are sitting there,
can hardly look, through my fingers I stare,
no more worries, no more care,
Im rich, Im, rich !!!! a millionaire

Now what will I do my mind starts to race,
go round the world, best pack my case,
slow down. slow down,just try and think,
wheres the wine, I need a drink,

I cant believe, Ive won such a lot,
quick get the phone, ring camelot,
I cant sleep, Im up all night,
have I really won?? just doesn't seem right,

big houses fast cars, holidays abroad,
everything now I can afford,
money for friends, family to,
my favourite charities, theres quite a few,

Next day from camelot, comes the call,
Im so disapponted, feel such a fool,
seems I have blown it, not got it right,
my ticket was for another night,

weary and crying take to my bed,
a while a winner, but just in my head. [comments] => 6 [counter] => 166 [topic] => 43 [informant] => lillyjane [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 3 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => oops )

How terribly disappointing! I do hope it isn't a true story!

Great writing. It was so easy to get into.

This made me laugh, its the type of thing what would happen to me. Mind you my friends brother won it, only £500,000 , but that would be very nice. Sue x
