'Come for another scratch card, Nikki?' said old Sid, shaking his head. Kenny giggled and acted out zipping his lip. 'Are you taking this in, chum? Keep that little lip zipped.'

She couldn't pick me up too because my mum's quite little and I'm big for my age, but she gave me a huge hug and kissed me on both cheeks and then on the tip of my nose too, which made me giggle. She picked my little brother Kenny up and whirled him round and round until he squealed. She looked at the card in the street and she gave this great whoop. Mum didn't win the lottery on the television. Then I'd strap Kenny and me to the sofa and Mum would jump in the purple Ferrari permanently hooked to the caravan and whizz us off to safety at hundreds of miles an hour. But it would have this never-fail alarm system if anyone approached. We could even have a huge purple glass plate piled high with big purple bars of Cadbury's milk chocolate for us to nibble on any time we fancy. It could be ultra-luxurious, with purple velvet fitted sofas and matching purple curtains and purple satin sheets on the bunk beds.
