Somebody Won Almost €8 Million In Last Night’s Lottery!

Sharyn Hayden

Ok, ‘fess up – WAS IT YOU?

If it WAS you, will you go halvsies with us?

Ok, not halvsies, that’s way too much – how about 10%?

Ok, FECK it, we’ll settle for two bottles of Prosecco and a fiver.

Can you imagine waking up today and realising that you were officially a millionaire? Wouldn’t it be amazing?

I am ALWAYS mentally listing all the things I would do if I won the Lotto;

1. Pay off everyone’s mortgages

2. Make everyone down tools and go on an EPIC holiday (first stop, Disney World!)

3. Set up trust funds for our kids and all our nieces and nephews

4. Purpose-build houses for homeless families

5. Make post-natal services in Ireland ‘a thing’ (stat!)

6. Find a cure for cancer

7. Go into Brown Thomas and finally buy something that isn’t “Just this lip gloss, please”

8. Stop worrying about money

Ok, I know I’m getting a bit carried away, and that’s not even my full list!

What’s at the top of your ‘If I won the Lotto’ list – go on, share!

The National Lottery says the €12.50 normal draw ticket was bought at Londis in the Faythe in Wexford yesterday.

The winning numbers were 1, 9, 15, 23, 33 and 38 and the bonus number was 29.
