A romantic dinner was on the cards after a North Yorkshire couple found out about their lottery win.
A man from North Yorkshire pocketed £68,063.80 after matching five numbers in the EuroMillions draw on Tuesday, February 10.
The winner, who is in his 50s, said: "I play two or three Lucky Dip lines each week.
"For somebody who never wins anything, this is just amazing.
"I celebrated by taking my wife out for a special Valentine’s meal."
Andy Carter, senior winners’ adviser at Allwyn, the operator of the National Lottery, said: "What wonderful news for our happy couple, and what excellent timing for their big win.
"We hope they enjoy treating themselves with their prize."
