How difficult is it to get lottery funding?

Question

I'm thinking of weighing in for about half a mil to support the Fenland Fish Pluckers and Sparrow Jockey Support Group. As the only fish plucking sparrow jockey left in the UK I know what it feels like to be a minority and it would be such a shame if my uniques skills were to be lost to mankind .

Answer 1

You have to play to win.

Answer 2

Correct. Prior to 1975, jock fish were found only in the US.

Answer 3

Look... I don't want to hear any bear whining till your outstanding dues of $13.57 are paid in full to the CBOLAR.

Answer 4

No-one cares they have your money.

Answer 5

I never bet money on a horse called "The Scottish Flyer". Sorry.

Answer 6

It would be so much easier to get a Scientific study and research grant pick a theory, prove or disprove it.

I can tell you now that it will take about five hours to get all the statistics on paper. Make them up as you go along, making sure you log in all your hours and weeks of work. In five hours you can have it ready to release the following year or make it a five year study they are the best.

Release to the press and bingo you are now ready to start a new study. Millions have been made this way.

One such study, has people thinking it is bad to drink coffee after twelve noon, another study says it is good to drink coffee any time you feel a head ache coming on, even if it is one pm.

The money will come rolling in,all for a five hour, grade five level science project once a year.

Answer 7

I would support the Sparrow Jockey Support Group but not the FFPs.  It's what they do with the detritus that really toasts  my cheesus.  Just too awful to be called disgusting.  Sure they do a great service to the underpaid and underrepresented Rotten Fish Guts Cleanup Collective, but I'm looking at the big picture here.  Put me down for .50 cents for the SJSG.  You're on your way.
