Monkey Money.....

A few days ago i made the mistake of buying my very first scratchcard. Just any other day, went down to the shops for a few things and thought, hey maybe today i'll get one of them scratch card things and try my luck. I don't know why, maybe it was the prospect of becoming considerably richer for just a pound or for the thrill and excitement from slowly scratching one panel and another to slowly reveal your fortune (man what a rush!), but one thing led to another.... Next thing i know im down a tenner and the proud owner of 10 useless card pieces.




















On the back of these things it states 1 in 5 chances to win somthing, so in theory i should have 2 winning scratchcards!!! After a lot of reasoning and blame games (mostly blaming the smug monkey), i scrounged together a quid and bought my final Monkey Money scratchcard. Somthing was different about this one, this one was special, it was my final chance to redeem
myself and somehow justify my losses.....




















My moment of triumph, i had just won 1 pound! Definitely a contender for the top 3 saddest things you can hope to see in your life is the amount of happiness a 1 pound winning scratchcard can bring to someones face.....
