DONEGAL MAN COLLECTS HIS €37K WINNING STREAK CHEQUE!

GORTAHORK man Padraig Doogan has collected his €37,600 cheque for his winnings on Saturday’s Winning Streak programme.

Pictured at the presentation of the cheques were from left: Geri Maye, Gameshow Host, Padraig Doogan, winning participant, Harry Cooke, Head of Operations and Corporate Affairs, The National Lottery and Marty Whelan, Gameshow Host.

The winning ticket was bought in Gallaghers, Cotteen.

Padraig and his wife Kerry are married nine years.  They have a daughter, Leah (7) and a son, Shane (4) and they are expecting another baby this week.

Padraig purchased the Scratch Card for Kelly as a Mother’s Day gift but they decided to put his name on it as she would be unable to appear on the show if selected!

Padraig enjoys music and sport and keeps busy spending time with his children.

Kelly was watching the show last week and rang her husband with the news – he was sure she was ringing to say she was in labour!

He would like to treat the family to a nice holiday after the show and, if he wins enough, he would love to get a new car.
