UK Lottery Winner Credits Late Father for Big Jackpot
A man named Darren in the UK won a lot of money in the lottery!
He thinks his dad, who passed away, helped him pick the winning numbers.
He used the numbers from his dad's birthday and the day he died.
On the day of the lottery, some roses in his garden bloomed, which he saw as a sign from his dad.
Because of the win, he and his partner, who have been together for a long time, are planning to get married and go on a family vacation.
They've already bought a new car and are fixing up their house.
It's like his dad sent him a lucky message from above!
Darren McGuire, a gas engineer from Bolton, won 10 lakh pounds (around Rs 11.77 crore) in the lottery.
McGuire believes his late father guided him to the winning numbers.
He chose numbers linked to his father's birthday and date of death.
Two rose bushes in McGuire's garden, which hadn't flowered in years, bloomed on the day of the draw.
McGuire and his partner plan to marry and take a family holiday after 20 years together.
