Lottery 55

Thanks to those of you who gave me suggestions for 55 topics a couple of weeks ago. This week I have used one of Laney's.



£10 for the first three.
The fourth is mine.
Ball 5, Oh God, it’s there too.
Heart beating, breath held, I hardly dare look.
Shaking.
Eternity.
Ball 6 is …….

YES. NO. YES.
Double check, triple check.
ALL 6 in one row.

My dreams, lay before me on the ticket clenched in my hand.
JACKPOT!!!

Excellent! That brought back memories. Two weeks running I got the first four numbers out. I practically peed myself on both occasions until the 5th number brought me crashing back to earth :(

Michael ~ I had 4 numbers once, I was so excited!! Lately I'm lucky to get 3 numbers up :o(, don't stop hoping though!

In Ink said...

Tigger is evil.

Ali said...

Pauline ~ Tigger loves you too I'm sure. He knows who he can trust.

Michael ~ Tigger says 'grrrrrrr'

Great 54 Ali, lol.

(Go on...count them!)

I think Tigger is constipated. He looks a little strange today.

Ali said...

Michael ~ I'm not feeding him anymore, he's gonna have you for his dinner instead!

Laney ~ Dear, sweet, helpful friend Laney. You are just soooooooooooooo kind to me, sitting there counting my words to save me the trouble. How many friends would have taken the time to do that! You astound me, and I want to thank you, no really, thank you from the bottom of my heart, your kindness knows no bounds does it. I'm touched, really, I am.

On a teeeny note of point though, I refer you to my first 55-fiction which stated...

"55 fiction is the art of writing a short story in 55 words or LESS."

Now then, about October and cameras!!!!! lol

That's my church every week. When I win I wont thank god.....that's not my kind of thing.....well I might secretly but that's my business. I can't stand when people thank god for whatever may befall them.... I think it is so, so, so.........Ali you please fill in the word I'm looking for. I know you know it.

Paddy ~ Hypocritical, Self-Righteous,unchristian, have I got it yet? I know what you mean though, my Nan (the one with the concorde finger!) was very religeous and attended church twice weekly, every week. She would tell us of for taking the Lords name in vain when we were little if we said 'For God's Sake'

Hey, that's great! When we all get together, you can buy!

Ali said...

Poetess ~ Thanks for visiting and commenting. Most of my readers have a wicked sense of humour, one or two however... *pss shsh, sshp phesss*, but don't tell anyone though!

Cherrie ~ OK, it's a deal. I'll buy you a ticket each. You may have to remind me though...lol.. I will have slept by then, and as you know, when I sleep my thoughts are always transported to the Bermuda Triangle, never to be seen again!
