What do newsagents sell that makes  people suddenly want to vote Tory ? 

Is it going to be the Daily Mail?

Makes me want to vote Communist.

Do you get one for the Daily Telegraph  as well? You probably might yeah

He's clawing his way back to victory.

No this is a very um odd  thing but newsagents sell them,

What about The Sun?

This is not a newspaper I will now  say but it's something these agents sell. 

They sell something that makes you want to vote  conservative.

Well it does if things turn out well after you've bought this particular item. So we're really back to the last question. 

Is it a lottery ticket?

It's a lottery ticket. If you win  the lottery many Labour voters who won the lottery

said they changed their mind and where now Tory voters.

What a depressing comment on humanity.

Perhaps even more depressing is that the American therapists have a name for the syndrome which is sudden wealth syndrome. 

Which is presumably what they suffer from  whenever they name a syndrome they they make  

money by deciding you have a syndrome.

That's a really boring name for it.

But these are the same people who said that you lose someone you love they die and you are still

ALAN SNEEZES

That was huge.

There are people in California now looking at their seismographs going Jesus Christ.

What's that?!

Is it because I said the word died?

So sorry for interrupting.

No no no it's fine it just was a revolting thing about psychologists who basically said that if someone you love dies and you're still inconsolable with grief six months  

later that is a mental condition what's that  called just six months later

What's that called?

It's called grieving. It is perfectly reasonable.

A syndrome we read off recently is you know when you come out the pictures and you sneeze? Do you do that when you go from a dark thing or look at the sun, yeah, it's got a real fancy name now.

I've never sneezed when walking through the dark? That's because you don't suffer from it. Don't mock people who do.

You don't go to matinees you go to evening  performances so it comes out and it's dark  

but it's I think it's from the dark into the light.

It's a syndrome it's a real syndrome.

We've got the name in front of me. Look my Elves have been busily hacking away. It's called autosomal dominant  compelling heliopthalmic outburst.

There you go

For short it's called Achoo syndrome.

We're still with lotteries. This is more astonishing. I don't I  mean what a coincidence. 

In 2001, guess who won the Zimbabwe banking corporation's  jackpot?

It was Robert Mugabe!

What are the odds against that? I mean oh wow lucky  man. Yeah lucky lucky lucky.

Anyway, less fortunate  was Clarence 'inaction' Jackson, the name tells it all. He won, in 1995, 5.8 million on the  

Connecticut lottery and failed to turn up to pick it up the collect by date passed and  

uh they wouldn't pay out he tried to sue and  he lost ,very sad. And there was a woman in 1980  

called Maureen Wilcox who chose the correct  winning numbers for both Massachusetts and  

Rhode Island unfortunately she played the Massachusetts numbers in Rhode Island...

The odds against that are thirty trillion to one.
