Melissa Ede One In £4 Million

I was deeply saddened to hear about the death of  Melissa Ede 58, just 18 months after winning £4 mil on a scratch card and after spending £40k on new choppers too. Our paths did cross once in Tesco.

    Did you meet her down the toothpaste aisle?

    1. That's true. Health before wealth as they say and other clapped out old cliches.

      Yes, the polygrip was 2p cheaper in there than in Morrisons.

    1. £50 an hour will take scratch cards as payment.

    1. They come in £1 £2 £3 £5 and £10 the more expensive they are the bigger the prize money is.The most I've ever won on a scratch card was a grand, I've had a few £500 wins but nothing really to wet my knickers over.

  4. I won £100 once and thought that was something to celebrate. It didn't pay for new teeth, however. Jx

    1. Did you squeal with delight? I know I did.

  5. I think dying before you blow all your winnings on glamorous dental madness is a clever strategy.

  6. I wonder who she left the money to? She had a partner didn't she?
    Anyhow, I've only ever won £10 on a scratchcard, or lottery.

    1. Yes she did have a partner, not very savvy in my opinion, if I had a partner many years older than myself who had just won £4 million on a scratch card I wouldn't sit around planning an elaborate wedding it would be a trip to Gretna Green the next day.
