A grieving mum has thanked her late dad for winning a £100,000 lottery prize just two weeks after he died – with her son also scoring the same whopping sum.
Tracy Mellor, 54, had just cancelled her dad’s People’s Postcode Lottery ticket before she got a phone call telling her she’d won the next day. And the mum-of-three, surrounded by her family, wept when the lottery revealed her postcode SK8 3NS had landed a £1 million prize in Heald Green.

00:05 [Laughing]
00:07 Oh, brilliant.
00:09 Amazing. Just amazing.
00:12 It's just... it's unreal, isn't it?
00:14 That's my dad, that. My dad died two weeks ago.
00:17 Oh, no way. I'm so sorry.
00:19 And Robin came and sat next to me this morning in the garden.
00:22 So, it's like my dad coming one at a time.
00:24 Yeah, my dad's done this for me.
00:26 And we're so happy for our son as well.
00:28 Because he's got the same amount, Joseph.
00:30 Congratulations!

00:48 Oh, my God.
00:50 Wow! That is a surprise.
00:53 £100,000.
00:55 I like all this manifesting and doing good things
00:58 and thinking positive all the time.
01:00 So, the thing is, I know I'd written this amount down
01:03 in our manifest box in the house.
01:07 I'd written down, "I'll manifest £100,000 for this year."
01:11 I'd written it down.
