Found it..

[Scrumpy]

I bought a couple of scratch cards.. both winners... By mistake I tore one up and put it in the tall waste bin (kitchen).. A couple of days later I realised what I had done.. 
I dug around in the bin.. found the bits.. stuck them back with sellotape.. 
Eureka !!! the ticket number was still intact..
I think my luck is in.. Lottery win next..

Phew,  that was lucky Scrumps.

Good luck Scrumps, am I still getting my new car if you win big  ?

[Scrumpy]

You certainly are Alex.. I never break a promise..
And I will fill it with petrol..
