Life changing

The copper worth more than coppers

A Brighton policeman has hailed his Lotto win as life-changing. The £59,128 win means that Stuart Block and beloved Labrador, Harry, can finally get a place of their own.

Stuart said, “Some people may think that it’s only the jackpot that is life changing but for me this win is truly life changing, as I can finally buy a house. I have called Brighton home for 15 years and absolutely love it, but I've never been able to get on the property ladder. Now, thanks to one bumper dose of luck and a few clicks on the laptop, Harry and I can go house hunting for a place to truly call home.”

A sporadic lottery player Stuart, only played in the Lotto quadruple rollover draw as he thought he had to be in it to win it. A couple of clicks later he had his Lucky Dip®, forgetting all about it until the following morning.

Stuart explains, “I was up early getting ready for work when I saw an email from Camelot congratulating me on my win and asking me to check my account. I toyed with the idea of not opening the email until that night so that I could spend the day dreaming of being a jackpot winner, but curiosity got the better of me and I read the message. Preparing for a £25 message, seeing £59,128 before me was quite an eye-opener!”

In a state of shock, Stuart closed the email and went to work. He said, “It was only when I told a work colleague about the win and she starting screaming and jumping up and down with excitement for me that the reality started to sink in.”

With the money safely in the bank, and friends and family aware of Stuart’s windfall, he can now start to make plans for the future. A party to celebrate, with just a little Champagne on order, will get things rolling and Harry will also receive his fair share of treats but then it’s house hunting all the way.
