An accountant who has always predicted winning big on the National Lottery is finally celebrating after scooping a £1 million prize.
Malcolm Haines, from Reading, Berkshire, would tell his son every time they drove past the headquarters of lottery operator Camelot that one day he would be visiting to pick up his prize.

However, because the 49-year-old Watford FC season ticket holder cannot visit the offices in person due to Covid-19 restrictions, he has instead been celebrating at his home with wife Rebecca, 52, and children.
