I love them, and am so glad they won.Not a billion but this Scottish couple have just won £ 33 m. I saw them being interviewed on the news and they
seemed quite calm when they were asked what they would do with the win. Apparently they are going to help neighbours who have recently been flooded. They are also planning on an early retirement and she wants to buy some expensive shoes !

National Lottery: Massive unclaimed £33m ticket was bought in WorcesterNational Lottery: Massive unclaimed £33m ticket was bought in Worcester
By The Citizen | Posted: January 22, 2016
An unclaimed lottery ticket worth an enormous £33million was bought just up the road in Worcester.
Lotto operators Camelot revealed the location of the second winning ticket as it urged all players to "check, double-check and triple-check their tickets" following the record jackpot earlier this month.
The first half of the rollover was claimed by Scottish couple David and Carol Martin.
The six winning numbers of the January 9 draw were 26, 27, 46, 47, 52 and 58. The owner of the unclaimed ticket has until July 7 to come forward.
I also saw this on the news the other day. I wonder what happened to the winner ; died, is in a coma, is abroad on holiday, suffered with dementia and doesn't remember having a lotto ticket, can't find it etc, etc,………. ?!!!!!
the ticket is probably paper mache in someone's pocket, or in landfill after being chucked away......I think it would be good if the machines that gave the tickets could uses a debit card, and that the card would be linked to the ticket, so that the person could be traced....it seems ridiculous that a flimsy piece of paper can represent 33million pounds.
Oh, what a nightmare if that is the case. I would be beyond bummed.Apparently a woman is claiming that the ticket was in the pocket of her jeans and it went into the washing machine.

they should at least print the tickets on plastic.

Apparently a woman is claiming that the ticket was in the pocket of her jeans and it went into the washing machine.
That woman's now been arrested for theft, as she's obviously created the ticket herself fraudulently. Oops!
and I skimmed over the article to find the picture.
