A WOMAN knew she had won a massive lottery prize after hearing a song through her neighbour's wall.<\/p>\n
Mandy Mulvey, 37, scooped \u00a390,909 in the People's Postcode Lottery today.<\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
She shared a \u00a31million jackpot with nine of her neighbours in Harlow, Essex.<\/p>\n
Everyone in the winning postcode gets a share of the whopping cash prize.<\/p>\n
When Mandy heard her overjoyed neighbours Jeff and Marion Lilley singing the Postcode Lottery theme tune, she realised she was in luck too.<\/p>\n
The special needs teaching assistant had not even told her husband Luke that she had bought a ticket.<\/p>\n
Mandy said: "Luke\u2019s mum played the lottery and someone from her street won it. <\/p>\n "I just thought to myself \u2018I might start doing that\u2019.\u202f\u00a0I signed up a couple of years ago, but Luke didn\u2019t even know I played.<\/p>\n "The first he knew was when I told him last Friday when I found out I\u2019d won."<\/p>\n Luke, 37, added: "We could hear the neighbours singing through the walls."<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n The couple plans to splash the cash on a dream holiday to visit Mandy's sister in Australia.<\/p>\n She said: "I\u2019m literally shaking. I don\u2019t know what to say.\u202fThis is amazing.<\/p>\n "Days before Christmas. It\u2019s incredible. I honestly thought it would be \u00a32,000 or \u00a33,000 maybe.<\/p>\n "This makes such a huge difference. We\u2019ll finish doing up the garden and visit my sister in Australia."<\/p>\n Luke said: "We\u2019ll take the three kids. We\u2019ve never been as a family."<\/p>\n A couple down the street from Mandy and Luke won \u00a3180,000 – but people think the first thing they want to buy is boring.<\/p>\n<\/picture>MONEY MATTERS <\/span><\/p>\n
