They must be hay fever sufferers. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-50004518 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted November 26, 2019 Site Supporter Share Posted November 26, 2019 I suppose you could hide the exact amount, but if you moved into the sticks or bought some mega expensive apartment somewhere, it would flag up the obvious. As would quitting your job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely not mandatory to go public but they do try and talk you into it because it's great that they see normal folk winning big and changing their life. It's all about fulfilling the big dream.

Youri McAnespie Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 You could tell which tasteless nouveau-riche garish carbuncle was his by the numerous St George flags and Bernard Manning DVDs blaring out from within.
