A LUCKY couple from Neston are celebrating after scooping just under £450,000 on the EuroMillions draw. John and Carol Reddy, both 47, matched five numbers – 4, 5, 17, 38 and 48 plus the lucky star, 3 – in the August 21 draw. Chester FC fan John, a former Kingsway High School pupil, said he couldn’t believe it when he realised he’d won £445,440. Speaking during a press conference at the Exacta Stadium – the home of his beloved Blues – John and his wife Carol, a receptionist at the Countess of Chester Hospital, revealed they will use some of the money to have their marriage of 20 years re-blessed in Spain.
