Gabrielle Nash was ironing when the
couple's numbers came up

Gabrielle and Darren Nash should not have been surprised
when they won the £15m Lotto jackpot on Christmas Eve -
as it had already been predicted.
The couple from Stevenage, Herts,
picked up their cheque at White Hart Lane, the north
London home of Darren's favourite football team Spurs.
The pair then revealed Gabrielle's
aunt had read in her horoscope that someone in the
family would win the lottery.
They are to buy a house, go on
holiday and buy a car with their winnings.
The couple, both aged 34, have two
young sons.

We couldn't believe it was happening

"I was doing the ironing and had
just switched over to watch Casualty when I saw the
Lotto numbers," Gabrielle said.
"I recognised them straight away
and shouted, 'they're my numbers, we've won!'
"Darren was asleep but he woke up
immediately and jumped up to fetch the ticket.
"We couldn't believe it was
happening.
Wonderful feeling
"The fantastic news didn't start
to sink in properly until the next day, but it made our
Christmas Day celebrations extra special."
She has already been to the sales,
adding: "It's a wonderful feeling not to have to worry
about the cost of things.
"The win means the world to us, we
can really secure the future and help our family."
The lucky numbers were 17, 21, 25,
27, 30 and 37.
