LAST Friday’s EuroMillions winner has come forward to collect the £101m jackpot.
The prize has been won by someone in Britain and they will collect the third biggest prize in the UK.
A national lottery spokesman has said: “This is amazing news – we are absolutely delighted for the winner.
“We’ve got the champagne on ice and look forward to welcoming the ticket-holder into the National Lottery millionaires’ club.”
Camelot, who run the Lottery, said that they are not yet able to say if the winning ticket holder is part of a syndicate.
The biggest-ever Euro Millions win went to Colin and Chris Weir, from Scotland. They collected £161m in the first part of 2011.
The second biggest prize was collected by one ticket-holder in October 2010. The lucky winner won £113m and has stayed anonymous.
The winners of Friday’s draw are now £1m richer than David Bowie, who is Britain’s 703rd richest person.
They could now buy 600 of the most expensive sports cars – the Ferrari 458 Italia, which has a price tag of £140,000.
Or if they wanted to they could have a party and invite Rihanna to sing at it. She charges £500,000 a performance.
Meanwhile, the best way to watch the X-Factor is to record it, so that you can fast forward all the adverts. It was on for a mind numbing two and a half hours on Saturday and then a further hour tonight (Sunday).
There seemed to be endless adverts during its slot. But I suppose it gives you a chance to make a brew.
You know when the studio programmes start that Christmas is not far away.
