READER Malcolm Isherwood has sent me nine scratchcard promotion games he has collected from papers over the past couple of weeks -- and, guess what, they're all top tier prize winners. Blow me down with a feather.
He wants me to warn people not to spend their hard-earned cash on premium charged phone lines of around a fiver a time to claim their winnings.
He says he's not gullible enough to think he could be lucky enough to win, especially when he has received five cards all at once, and all exactly the same.
Neither am I. I like to scratch off the panels, see my two 'sorrys' and a 'congratulations' and sling them straight in the bin. I too find the things nothing but a nuisance.
