The call came through on Saturday night after the draw and there is a great buzz around the town as the good news spreads. We’ve had a steady stream of customers in checking their tickets this morning and we hope that the winner has already realised that they now have a very valuable ticket in their possession. We last sold a winning Lotto jackpot ticket in 1996 so I like to think that we were overdue another big win last night! We are a local community shop, and we are all delighted for the winner, whoever it may be,” he said.
