Lottery history could be made in Friday's EuroMillions draw.

The £95 million prize will be the biggest pay-out of its kind in the world if it is won by a single ticket-holder.

Larger prizes have been won in the US but the actual payouts were lower, either due to tax or because winners opted for smaller one-off lump sums.

A single EuroMillions jackpot winner would also automatically become the UK's biggest ever lottery winner - eclipsing Glasgow postal administrator Angela Kelly's £35.4 million EuroMillions jackpot win in August last year.

They would also seize the European lottery crown from Dolores McNamara of the Republic of Ireland, who won £77 million on July 31 2005.

Well I won a tenner from last Saturday's lotto :)

Woo Hoo...

I buy two lucky dip tickets for each UK lotto, Wednesday & Saturday.

£4.00 a week lets me dream.

Biggest win so far in about five years was £69.00 for 3 numbers.

In terms of outlay I was ahead at one stage but I think they're winning atm :D

I won a tenner around 10 times.

I really gave up but have been considering to start up again. I was nealry ALWAYS one number too high or too low. It used to frustrate me.

I would love to win a lot of money, I would most likely retire if I did. :)

I got 5 numbers in the lotto a few years ago, was expecting thousands, but got just under 2k!!
Now do 1 line twice a week & put money instead into premium bonds.:thumb:

Wow, nice one feckit! The most I've ever had is 3 numbers, but I've probably only played it about 15 times ever :lol:

I'm tempted to get a ticket tonight though :D
