    Here's a random story (or not at all random possibly).

    South Africa's lottery has just drawn 5,6,7,8,9 and 10. <yikes>

    Wonder if the odds are still 14m:1 if consecutive?

    I thought any combination is the same odds?

    I think those probabilities relate to a 49 ball lottery. I gave up when it became 58 balls as the probability increased to about one in 40 million (?). Then they tried to persuade the public that it was a great idea because "there are more balls you can choose from"!

    Don't forget about putting the price up <doh> A lottery ticket should be no more than 50p.

    There would have been 44 different consecutive number combinations:

    1,2,3,4,5,6
    2,3,4,5,6,7
    Etc up to
    44,45,46,47,48,49

    So the odds of six consecutive numbers would be 14 million approx divided by 44=318000 approx.

    Or am I talking total bullocks.

    The chap who attempted to set fire to the Union flag at the Cenotaph named Astrophel Sang, is given conditional discharge. As you probably know, he was coloured. ............ The lad who had a leak at the side of a Memorial
    stone was locked up for 15 days.......He was white................. what does that tell you?

    Had a second letter Now. asking me to pay my T.V. License. ......... what about some of you lot, what are you doing? .......... Any advice? ................................................... To pay or not to pay? That is the question.
