Lottery millionaire winner in Warwickshire

By Friday 26 April 2013 Updated: 01/05 10:47

LADY luck smiled on one fortunate Warwickshire man - known only as Mr C.

The mystery man became the latest Lotto millionaire after banking £1,204,563 in the draw on Saturday March 16.

Mr C - who did not want the full glare of publicity - joins the National Lottery millionaires club, which is already over 3,200 strong.

And he won without even touching a ticket as he played online and matched all six Lotto numbers winning the jackpot prize.

A National Lottery spokesperson said: “Huge congratulations to Mr C on winning this fantastic prize – he didn’t even have to touch a ticket. With many people leading busy lives playing online is becoming increasingly popular, as through a few simple clicks players can make sure that they don’t miss out.”

Interactive winners have the opportunity to release their name, remain anonymous or like this winner, release some details through partial publicity.

It is not known how MR C celebrated his life-changing win.

A survey of lottery winners, found that surprisingly many shun champagne and turn to tea to celebrate.

But most soon adapt to their new found wealth with 82 per cent of big winners splurging on a new home, many with luxurious features such as walk-in wardrobes, pool tables and hot tubs.

Winners have also been keen to reduce household chores with many employing cleaners and gardeners.
