“Thank you!” the man laughed!
“It’s a shock! I’m sweating like anything.
“I’m glad I answered this call. I looked at the number and I’ve been ignoring a lot of calls because they’re mostly scams, but something made me think I’d better answer this one.
“Honestly, I always thought I was going to win. Ever since I was in my 20s, I’ve thought, ‘one day I’m going to win’. It’s just taken a while!
“I'd better go tell my wife. I don’t think she’ll believe me. I don’t think we’ll sleep tonight.
“I’ll help the kids and grandkids – help them to pay off their homes.
“A new car and caravan are what I want so we can do a few trips, maybe eventually do a lap around Australia.”
The man’s 18-game QuickPick entry was purchased on The Lott website – the official home of Australia’s lotteries.
