Joanne and Philip Poultney receive their winning cheque.

A Braddan man is celebrating after winning £1,000,000 on the Euromillions lottery draw.

Philip Poultney bought a ticket for last Tuesday's draw after dreaming about winning big the night before.

He discovered he'd won the millionaire's raffle after taking his ticket into Shoprite to check the numbers the next day.

The 45-year-old revealed that he even dreamed about asking to have his ticket checked in the supermarket and being told he needed to call Camelot.

A new family home is at the top of the shopping list for the father of three, along with new cars for wife Joanne and eldest son Lewis.
