Gambian Man won £4million on the UK Lottery during break and went back to finish the last 4 hours of his shift at work
A Gambian man who works at the Wetherspoons has won the UK’s biggest ever scratchcard jackpot while on
his break still went back to finish his shift. Amadou Gillen scooped a
whopping £4million after picking up two cards from a newsagent during his
12-hour stint as the pub’s kitchen manager. After winning £10 on the first card
the dad of two went on to become a multi-millionaire with his second. But shocked
Amado, 46, didn’t tell anyone and even went back to work for another four hours
with his winning scratch card in his pocket.
Single
Amadou, who moved from his native The Gambia to Wiltshire more than 20 years
ago, only told his family yesterday – a week after his record-breaking win.
He
said: When I saw the number '4' on the card I knew they didn't pay out £40, so
I knew it had to be £4million. I scratched off the rest and oh my, I was so
excited. But I put the card back in my pocket, and went back to finish the rest
of my shift. It was certainly a long shift that day. I didn't finish until
11.30pm or 12 that night, so had to work for almost four hours knowing I had
won. I don't know how I did it. People say when they win the lottery they will
feel like this, or that, but when you do, you feel different. I wanted to
celebrate, but I couldn't. It was a feeling I can't express.
The
former McDonalds apprentice from Trowbridge, Wiltshire says he has splashed out
on a new wardrobe - but shopped at TK Maxx because he "still loves a
bargain".
Delighted
Amadou is also planning on trading his one-bed rented flat for a modest
three-bed home in Bristol and learning to drive. But the modest former
restaurant driver still intends to buy a Peugeot while he gets to grips with
being on the road. Mr Gillen, who has two daughters, aged 19 and 22, told his
teen daughter Takysha Smith yesterday while treating her to a meal at Nando's. I
called her and told her, I have something important to tell you. She thought it
was bad news, so I told her it was good news. We got to Nando's, sat down, and
she said, 'Tell me now Dad' so I just said, 'you’re not going to believe this -
I won £4million'. I took a picture of the card on my phone so I showed it to
her. She was quite pleased. The pub worker did his last shift on Saturday – but
still did not reveal his big win to his bosses.
Mr
Gillen added that he went into work, did his shift 6pm until 10pm, and when he
finished, saw his duty manager, handed over the keys, and that was it. I have
been doing a lot of clothes shopping, and I do enjoy going to TK Maxx because I
like to get designer stuff at discount prices rather than going to Gucci. I still
love a bargain.
Mr
Gillen said he will put money aside for his eldest daughter to study a science
course at university. He doesn't intend to go back to work. He is also going to
book a holiday to The Gambia for a huge family party, as well as a trip to
Jamaica. The multi-millionaire added that this money is a life-changer for me. I can now tick all the boxes of everything
I've ever wanted to do.
