I found out I won £11million lottery jackpot while I was on the school run – but what I did next will surprise many | The Sun
A COUPLE were left stunned on the school run after finding out they had become multi-millionaires – but they still went to work.
Lottery officials called the lucky pair on Wednesday morning to tell them they had won a whopping £11million.
The man said it was too soon to decide what he and his family will do with the pile of cash – and he still had to go to work.
“It hasn’t sunk in," he said. "It doesn’t feel real."
He said he had no inkling of the life-changing win as he was doing the school drop-off.
"We can't comprehend the win yet, so it's hard to know what we will do," he added.
