Video: Euromillions dream comes true for Hull couple

Susan Denston, 58, said she had a recurring dream she would hit the jackpot and her vision was realised when she and her husband John matched the numbers on last Friday’s EuroMillions draw.

The couple have an extra reason to celebrate as Mr Denston, 64, was made redundant from his job of 35 years as a warehouse man two years ago.

“We have now got a bit of money. We don’t have to rob Peter to pay Paul,” he said.

“It has come at a very good time. We can start living now,” his wife added.

Mrs Denston, who has been unable to work because of health issues, including epilepsy and diabetes, said the last time she had the winning dream was last Wednesday.

“I dreamt that we had won and we had gone to Leeds and put the winning ticket into the machine.

“I had the dream several times over the course of a few weeks and the last time was on the Wednesday two days before we won.

“It’s going to change our lives, if you are struggling like everybody is struggling.

“We are all struggling to find the next pound to pay the next bill.

“We don’t have to think about where the next pound is coming from to pay the next bill,” she added.

The winning numbers came on the fifth and final line of their lucky dip sequence.

The couple, who have been married for 37 years and have four children and 10 grandchildren, plan on splashing out on a new BMW X5 and a new caravan.

They are also looking to upgrade their summer holiday to Majorca, which was booked before their win.

Mrs Denston added: “It gives other people hope. If we can win it then anybody can.”
