A Postcode Lottery winner plans to take his wife on their dream honeymoon after scooping more than £500,000. But the first thing he'll do is splash out on a pack of Lurpak...
Cyril Hellewell and his wife Maria, who live in the Lincolnshire seaside town of Mablethorpe, got the surprise of their lives after discovering they'd won the Postcode Lottery. A huge jackpot of £7.9m was distributed between 591 people living in the LN12 1 area, with one street in particular receiving the lion's share of the prize.
As reported by Lincolnshire Live, 13 lucky winners living on Trenchard Road all got their hands on a chunk of £3.95m. A total of £263,333 each was given to 11 neighbours on the street while two others - including Cyril and Maria - scooped a whopping £526,666, thanks to playing with two tickets.
