Scratching

I walked into a corner shop to purchase a newspaper a few weeks ago and then - as I entered - I remembered I had already bought the paper earlier that day.

Figuring I had to buy something, I bought a lottery scratchcard for one pound.

I won £2.

A few days later, I went back to the same shop and bought another card - this time for £2.

It was another winner. This time I won £4.

On Thursday, I went back into the shop and bought two of the £2 scratchcards.

The first one was a loser.

The second had ten pounds on it.

Time to quit while I'm ahead.
