Hang on... you wanted to know the lottery numbers, so you set the timer on
your DVD or SkyPlus or whatever to start recording over an hour's saturday
primetime guff beforehand, and then you sat through one hour and five
minutes of the preceding programme in order to see the numbers?

Next you'll be telling us you read a tabloid so you can check the football
scores at the back.

The lottery draws were publicised as being in the dance prog but no time
was specified.

My VCR has a fast play option so you can skim through a recording - it's
quite funny watching soaps that way.

Close. The football fixtures rather than the scores. The tabloids
actually seem better than some websites at detecting rearranged Scottish
matches

Tabloids have page 3 girls?

I don't usually get that near the front because I stop when I get to
articles with long words.

Heh, my first sight of last night's footie scores was in today's tabloid
du jour. Traitorously I didn't look first for my team's result - I went
straight for the matches I had money on :)
