I can get this page up even though I wouldn't normally try
it because I don't have an account. What I have just
discovered is that I can access the results page from the
tab on this page even though I can't go to it directly from
a URL (as a file or a link).

Further faffing about with this has led me to discover that
the results tab, on the page above, takes you to an https
address:

www.national-lottery.co.uk/player/p/results.ftl

whereas my original URL for the results (the one which had
worked up to and including last Saturday) is an http
address:

www.national-lottery.co.uk/player/p/results/results.do

Further faffing about has let me discover that both

https://www.national-lottery.co.uk/player/p/results.ftl

and

http://www.national-lottery.co.uk/player/p/results.ftl

take me to the information I want.

Thanks for the lead on this, Brian. Without your link (as
shown at the top of this e-mail) I wouldn't have chanced
upon this satisfactory result.

I've also noticed that when I paste the old URL into the
address bar in Firefox under Windows, it immediately
substitutes the new URL (the last one above) and goes to
the right page. This probably happened without me noticing
it when I reported the problem in my first e-mail.
