Eddie Honda Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 Has anyone been keeping tabs on the missed draws. I've forgotten to but I wonder who could have won it...You want Bullseye on Challenge TV. Besides I think this one turns out to be the Fashion Spree and not the caravan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeeExEll Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 Bonus ball tonight, number 5. Again. So, the last four draws have been 41, then 41, then 5, then 5. https://www.national-lottery.co.uk/results/lotto/draw-history Jim Bell 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dollywobbler Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 So, I should have won this TWICE? That draw history is just remarkable. Do we need to mount a Bucketeer hunt when we reach Bulgaria? Aston Martin, The Moog and Brodders 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yes oui si Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 I thought I was bad with four lined up, two of which are parked on the road. I was accosted the other day, by the old dear who lives opposite. She was incredulous that we’ve, “now got four cars; almost one for each day of the week.” I politely laughed (to match her fake smile) and joked* that if they had more room on their one-car driveway, I’d have been asking her to use the space as an overflow car park. She fucked off pretty rapidly after.MGB - not on roadDolly Sprint - not on roadMontego TDI wagon - not on road, need to sell, new (HENS FUCKING TEETH) radiator and tyres, £200 will need trailered, only good for spares.C30 1.6d - wouldn't start after I changed the fuel filter.

dollywobbler Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 Well, I think I'm going to have to offer up my tickets for this one. No idea when it's actually going to take place and I'm off on hols/collection caper international next week anyway, so nae room/time. Is that allowed when your number has been drawn twice already? What do you mean this has never happened before? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supernaut Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 Brilliant. A raffle that has sold out, then slowly un-sells again afterwards because it's taking too long to be drawn. flat4alfa, BorniteIdentity, The Moog and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Datsuncog Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 It's a mystery alright, in every conceivable sense of the word. I'm waiting for the denouement, where it turns out that Bucketeer has taken the mystery vehicle to pieces and spent the past few weeks hiding the bits throughout 30 different European countries. The winner's task is to solve a series of clues, collect all the bits together and rebuild it from scratch by the roadside in order to find out what it actually is, and then drive it home in time for Shitefest in a giant, multilevel, non-de-trop, epic collection thread to end all collection threads, and then be formally crowned King of All Shite in a ceremony of dazzling pageantry in a field of rusty Saabs in Aberdeenshire. It'd be kind of like a shite automotive mashup of Around the World in 80 Days and The Crystal Maze mixed with Fantasy World Dizzy (if anyone remembers that on the Spectrum/Amstrad/C64). If it's anything less than this, I shall be most put-out. catsinthewelder, purplebargeken, chaseracer and 6 others 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davehedgehog31 Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 Bucketeer was all set to roffle it off, he found a little dent on the front of the car and thought he would just tap it out beforehand.

Mally Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 Have a nice holiday Mally. Say hello to Bucketeer if you see him. There is a guy where I'm going who asks people for money to retrieve his car from the police pound.If he asks me I'll give him " You are bucketeer AICM whatever car it is" My ticket came from 83C, I will still pay eventually, but it is only fair that he takes the ticket and car if it ever happens.

yes oui si Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 How much is a broken c30 and where is it?It's worth £1,750ish fixed - £1200 takes it. Located near Berwick upon Tweed.

yes oui si Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 What is a c30? I know I should know but I can't think what it is.MK2 focus in a Swedish frock with hints of 480 and p1800ES - really nice wee cars, properly bolted together interiors. Did a thousand mile tour around Scotland and slept in mine one weekend a couple of years back. Have done 700+ mile days in it as well. Bought it when I worked as a home carer around rural north Northumberland and it relished 150+ miles of a and b roads every day. 50mpg when pooling, 38mpg when ragged, once did Newcastle to Berwick in forty-*cough* minutes. Surprisingly spacious as well - can fit a washer and chest freezer, or four sets of wheels. catsinthewelder, Laseraligningfoofooflanges and rantingYoof 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catsinthewelder Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 I knew that I knew what it was, it's just currently hiding between the bit of my brain that looks at moderns for work and the bit that enjoys cheap shite. Interesting to know they are rapidly heading towards the latter as they are good looking things. The 1.6 HDI lumps might not be overly dependable but seem to hustle Berlingos along far quicker than their chassis can cope with so should be fun in something smaller.

Bucketeer Posted May 15, 2018 Author Share Posted May 15, 2018 Soz for the delay folks. I haven't been home for the past couple of weeks due to work and I'm too unwealthy/tight to buy a couple of bottles of mobile data at the moment. Anyway, the mystery is back on. If anyone's bothered. This mystery roffle has proved to be a useful tool in sorting the roffle addicts from the weekend rofflers, and to feed the addiction further I can introduce BONUS JEOPARDY . . . The winning winner of the roffle will win the mystery vehicle AND will also be asked a simple question. Answer this question correctly and the prize fund will be increased by a whopping some percent. The bonus double jeopardy bonus prize will be a choice of either . . . 1 - 20% of the total roffle money (£47.20 probably) in real life cash money (or electronic money). OR 2 - Another car! All eager and ready to be hooked on to the mystery towbar. So not only do you win car, you could also win money or more car.And I get to join in the anticipation/dread as I could be losing both of my running, road legal cars. Sweet.We all get to experience one of the official roffle emotions. I'll send out payment messages/threats later today, and we can finally get this ship sailing. eddyramrod, flat4alfa, clayts450 and 22 others 25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
