Mark Weir won a £2.7 million Lotto jackpot, and then told the members of his former lottery pool, "You won't get a penny".
Father-of-two Mark, 45, hit the jackpot with a £1 Quick Pick ticket he bought in last Wednesday's UK National Lottery draw after failing to win anything for years in his office lottery pool.
As he picked up his winnings yesterday, plastics factory machine operator Mark, from Darlington, Co Durham, said, "The lads at work won't be getting a share.
"I paid into a [lottery pool] at the factory for years and never won anything to shout about. But the [Quick Pick] has got me the jackpot."
He and wife Julie, 44, who plan to continue working, are planning a shopping spree. Top of Mark's list is new fishing gear. He added, "I'd like a new car but now I can afford a dream model, I don't know what to buy."
