£1m scratchcard winner refused to give up job

Winning £1m was sheer luck for Jamie Heavens, who purchased a Millionaire Riches Scratchcard after watching a customer in front of him do it.

After leaving the petrol station, he pulled into a layby to scratch it off and was gobsmacked when he won.

However, hardworking Jamie, from Bournemouth, had no intention of quitting his day job.

Jamie told the Mirror: “It was 7.30 in the morning and I still had a day’s shift ahead… I won a million pounds and earned another £100 for my shift.”

After that the roofer and his fiance Danielle spent £25,000 on a lavish wedding with “a band, a videographer and a massive marquee”.

He bought a business but feels rather happy about his new job, adding: “I still work but now I’m my own boss!”
