David and Kathleen Long scoop their second million in as many years, plus a luxury car, saying they always believed they would do it again.....
According to Guardian is the twitter page:.....
“Good, i’nt it?” said Kath Long, when asked on Wednesday how it felt to be married to the luckiest man in Britain. The retired landlady
from Scunthorpe still looked in shock, five days after her lorry driver husband, David, beat odds of over 283bn to one to scoop a second £1m prize on the EuroMillions lottery within two years.
David almost missed his first win, back in July 2013, when he misread his numbers and thought he had only won £2.70. He chucked the ticket in the bin, only fishing it out on a whim when he decided to go to the shop to buy a paper. “By the time I’d got to the shop I realised it was worth a heck of a lot more,” said the 59-year-old on Wednesday, after reluctantly going public with his second win. Last Friday he played again and won another million, plus a luxury car.
He insisted he didn’t feel guilty about doing the double. “Not at all,” he said. “There’s no guilty feeling at all. I always believed I would do it again.” He didn’t play every week, he said, but always knew he would strike it lucky twice. “I always had a feeling it was going to be me. I tend to play when I know there are a lot of prizes on the go.”
