Winners of Euro Millions announced

I wish I was one of the winners of Friday’s Euro Millions.

The record-breaking £90 million jackpot was won by a couple from South Wales and a group of IT workers from Liverpool.

The couple from South Wales will pick up £45,570,835.50, which makes them the biggest lottery winners in this country.

Before this jackpot, the biggest British win was Angela Kelly who collected £35.4 million in August 2007.

The £45 million would rank you equal at 1,023rd in the Rich List.

And if you invested some of it in the bank and business it could make you £2 million a year in interest.

Meanwhile the odds of you having a fake £1 coin in your pocket are one in 40.

The treasury released the figures and said it represented £37 million of the £1.4 billion in the market.

After the £1 coin the second most forged denomination is the £20 note.

Finally David Haye is the first man from Great Britain since Lennox Lewis to receive a world heavyweight title.

He beat the 7ft giant Valuev on points and now joins other Brits such as Bruno, who have won heavyweight belts.

Steak sales up

IT was interesting to find out that steak sales have increased by nearly 200%.

It is said the reason behind this is Brits are eating comfort food in their own home instead of going out to restaurants.

Figures show sirloin and rump cuts are eaten the most – and, although expensive, fillet steak is being eaten by more and more people too.

Sainsbury’s have reported rump and sirloin steaks are up by 200%. While Marks and Spencer has said sirloin and rump sales are up 40%. And fillet has increased by 70%.

They say you should never sit infront of a comedian during a stand-up show and I think they are right.

I normally would not dream of sitting in the front row, but last week during one of the comedy shows I found I had to sit in a seat next to the comedian.

He did pick on me saying I look scared but shouldn’t worry. Thankfully he soon picked on someone else and left me alone.

It was a good night and it took my friends and I to four venues across town, with a different comedian at each place.

Meanwhile, Liverpool is having a bad time of it at the moment.

After a brilliant victory against Manchester United supporters were more hopeful, but defeats to Arsenal and Fulham have not helped the cause.
