My wife won £1million on the lottery – but then I spent the money on a brand new car & a set of custom-made golf clubs | The Sun

A MAN whose wife won £1million on the lottery spent the money on a brand new car and set of custom-made golf clubs.

Ceri Ann Roscoe-Roberts, 42, bought a ticket for Friday's special EuroMillions draw before forgetting all about it.

But when she woke up again the next day she found out she'd won.

And her husband Paul, 45, a golf course manager in Bangor, has already treated himself to a new set of golf clubs.

Paul said: "The first purchase was a set of golf clubs believe it or not.

"I have never been able to or wanted to do in a way go somewhere get custom fit and then walk out with the clubs."
