Congratulations to Fergus Macrahanish of Bog-Fetterannie following his win of 13 million euros in the Spanish lottery. Apparently he received an email out of the blue last Wednesday detailing his win.
Fergus quickly paid the standard 50 euros processing fee and the very next day a smart Spanish chap arrived in a helicopter along with 3 television crews delivering the cheque for 13 million euros, tax paid.
After depositing the cheque in the Royal Bank, Macskillop, they flew Fergus to Madrid for a press conference where he was presented to King Juan Carlos.
The cheque cleared without difficulty the next day and Fergus immediately set off on a world cruise with a young lady he met in Paisley High St whilst on his way to the airport.
Before leaving Fergus confided in the Glenboggin Courier - apparently the Spanish lottery have been trying to find a number of winners in the same way, but none ever reply.
