Saturday 13th March was an un-believable day. I joined Jackpotjoy, pre-bought tickets in the Sapphire and Emerald Rooms and then won a Full House which was a bit of a shocker.

After a couple more games I had visitors, so I put the computer down and got busy chatting with my inlaws knowing my pre-bought tickets would be playing.

After our guests had gone I tried to log back into my account but it wouldn't log in. So I tried again: nothing.

I thought I must be putting in the wrong password in so had another go and logged in.

WELL what a complete heart stopper that was, my balance was showing at over £11,800.00! I honestly couldn't believe it. I went into the chat room and asked if i had just won jackpot joy jackpot, when people were congratulating me it still never sunk in!!!!! It still hasn't sunk in.

My wife was walking round tears in her eyes and her bottom lip trembling, she phoned our 2 daughters in a daze. Even they were shocked and stunned.

We are planning a holiday in september to surprise my mom in law for her 70th birthday, so this win is top secret from her, difficult 5 months not being able to tell her our fantastic news.

I will treat my daughters and grandaughter and grandson.

This win could not have come at a better time because i need a new work van so i am on the look out for a VW T5, perfect for me!

So a big big thank you from a shocked a stunned jackpot joy jackpot winner. cheers.

I also want to dedicate the win to my cousin Dave, who sadly passed away not long ago, after a brave batter with cancer.
