You are a master of stealth. They never see you coming. But you always see them coming. HEY-O!

Memo to self: do the lotto this evening. I’m about due a win I reckon. Okay, so I rarely play, but I deservessess to win, honest I does. And if I do get the €8 million it’ll be great fun. Think of all the crap I could buy. Or I could buy a house and still have a couple of million left over to wave at peoples and say Nyah nyah, I am considerably richer than you. Unless of course I met Bill Gates, or that Abramovich dude. I would also purchase[1] a sexophone, purely so I could walk around saying, dude, look, it is a sexophone. I might also get a saxophone, so I could confuse[2] people, because they both sound so similar that on first hearing you probably wouldn’t know which one I was talking about. So I’d tell everyone “I’ve a sexophone” for weeks and weeks and weeks[3] And then one day I’d suddenly switch, and be “I also have a saxophone” and they’d be all “We know, you done tol’ us all bout your sexophone”[4] and I’d be “Idjit! I knows I said I has a sexophone, but I also has a saxophone. Don’t you know the difference.” What fun[5] that would be.

  1. Hey, I’m due a lotto win too. Are you talking about the Euromillions lotto? Don’t play that one very often but think I will this week. When I win (not if, cos I’m being optimistic), I know I will share the money with immediate family and friends, do lots of travelling I think. We can all dream!

  2. i just learned i got a “pingback” thingie… they’re cool. i’d like to ping people back too - how do i do it?

    this is an hilarious post. it had me laughing the whole time! :D the “We know, you done tol’ us all bout your sexophone” bit especially got me! i love that.

    i really like all the footnotes and i think the sexophone/saxophone plan is brilliant.

    you make me laugh.

  3. The €8 million is just the irish lotto, it hasn’t been won in a while, that is why it is so high.

    Hey Jean Pierre, wordpress automatically pings any blog posts I link to, if they allow that. Or you can make sure by inputting the exact trackback address. Different blogs have them in different places, but you’ll usually see a trackback or pingback link and then you just stick that in on your end. You use wordpress too right? so if you scroll down past where you’d put the post you should see space for a trackback.

    If that doesn’t sound too confusing :)
