Richard's Lottery Numbers

Richard Lloyd has been very interested in the UK National Lottery, and has been giving detailed information and advice in his own inimitable style. In particular, he suggests that you keep your numbers secret (to avoid having to share the prizes), and also has been giving a running account of how close (or otherwise) his numbers have been.

I decided to see if I could deduce his choice of numbers from the information given, and the results of Lottery 12 (4th February, 1995) enabled me to complete this task.

Assuming my analysis has been correct (and that Richard hasn't tried to mislead me), his numbers are:
