there's a tradition in my family that when it's your birthday, instead of just getting a card, you get a scratchcard as well. it's also tradition to lose on said scratchcard. so when i received this pacman one from my sister last week i wasn't overally excited or optimistic. i had a quick glance at the rules for this particular one, win up to eight times! i read, knowing i'd be lucky to get one. so i just couldn't believe it when each 'game' that i scratched off told me that i had won. fair enough it was only 2 pounds at a time, but to win on every game - surely that's unsual? made up for it being ten days late!
