Comments:

• The draw used ball set T4 in the Excalibur 5 machine
• The average prize was £ 8.64.
• The prior history of the jackpot ticket included 46 wins totalling £320.
• From Saturday 12th July 2003 onwards, Camelot has completely refused to issue per-draw sales figures for any of their individual games, despite continuously doing so for more than 8 years prior to that date. They blamed the media for only concentrating on the main Lotto game sales (which have been falling steadily for years), which seems to be a poor excuse to me.
• Prizes won in this draw must be claimed within 180 days i.e. by 5.30pm BST on Monday 8th June 2009.

  Next Thunderball: #818 (Saturday 13th December 2008) [1 jackpot winner]
