The Westbury family that won a £7.7m on the National Lottery was not aware of their luck until the supermarket worker told them. The ticket winning numbers were 15, 28, 32, 43, 44 and 45. I am guessing that no member of Westbury family will have to work any time soon. Matching six numbers is not an easy thing to do, especially in the Powerball lottery, but if you manage to succeed in this task, your efforts will be rewarded accordingly.
Mr. Westbury runs a lightning protection business and since he loves his job very much, he plans to keep running it for three or four days a week. Gongrads on the winning!
