    £101m lottery jackpot winners Dave and Angela Dawes to give millions to friends and family

    Dave Dawes, 47, a factory supervisor, and his fiancé Angela, 43, a charity volunteer, were named as the winners of last Friday’s £101m National Lottery jackpot.

    The couple, who live in a £70-a-week rented one bedroom flat, now plan to go on a spending spree, buying their dream wedding as well as houses in Chelsea, west London, and Portugal.

    But along with treats for themselves, they have decided to share their luck with up to 20 close friends and family, giving each a million pounds.

    "It's an excessive amount of money, but we intend to look after our family and friends and do the best we can," said Angela, who has a son from a previous marriage.

    “We have drawn up a list of 15 to 20 people that we are going to make millionaires,” added Dave who has been married twice before and has two sons.

        **** em. With that much money you can buy some new ones.
        While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'

          Also Mr Dawes can afford to refresh his "Love and "Hate" finger tattoos. Which will be nice.

                  Someone ripped them off then, and sold them a dud with the Cee'd.

                  I saw one today, studied it, and it is the most horrid little thing.
