Anecdote - The wand touches only a few

Every December 22, the rain fell in millions and it drenched many. The day continues to be a day for health for the vast majority of people, who marvel at how it heals, and how they uncork, hug one another, and shout joy, which swells their current accounts as well as the Treasury's coffers. It was all due to Fortuna, the goddess of health, who wanted El Gordo in seven, 3347- in year eight to finish, and to Aya Ben Hamdouch, who repeated bombshell as in 2017.

Carlos Valenzuela Vasquez was nicknamed the 'prancing boy' within seconds. The tall, lanky child sang the prizes with Wendy Laborde Valverde at the seventh table. The child's intonation was normal with the numbers. However, the kid with glasses and a deep voice was somewhere between a Gregorian and monotonous psalmodies. His unusually long, elongated singing sounded bizarre. His slow tone caused sensations in the room as well as in the networks. He left his table empty.

He has been touched by 15,000 euros. It was a joy to celebrate it with him. Congratulations to the 9 wagons. The only thing that has touched my heart at the moment is getting up earlier.

You wait by train to hear the draw on radio and mobile to see if anything falls on you. And you are astonished to see it fall right next to you. It is your neighbor, who travels with you to Alcazar de San Juan like you and takes a lot of the second prize that has flooded Almansa with millions. Luck can also travel by train but it doesn't stop at every station, lamented clarineteEmotion01 who tweeted that her neighbor had taken 15,000 'euretes. She is celebrating it. The 9 wagons found out. Congratulations. I am not touched by anything at the moment. She resigned.

Two huge balls and a giant 10th were seized by real security from the carriers who had wanted to participate in the draw. They were part of a group costume that did not pass the metal detector. "Let's go! "Let's go! I'm not here to wait since eight at night, so I can't pass the ball with it," Jorge shouted. He was resigned and said that he felt "like a snail with no shell". He agreed to go 'undressed" with seven of his friends from Villares del Saz in Cuenca, which has 500 inhabitants. They were all wearing giant balls. Two of them had brought a tenth of the number 42442, which was "purchased whole in the town." Jorge, who was already at the stalls, lamented that they had "rowed and row to death on the shore."
