A 28-strong syndicate is celebrating after scooping nearly £80,000 on the lottery.

The colleagues, who work for Morrison Utility Services in Chatham, matched five numbers and the bonus ball, winning £79,887.

The winning ticket was bought by syndicate manager, Callum Crosier, 24, from Gravesend, at Moores Convenience in Mackenzie Way, Gravesend.

He said: "We've only been playing in a syndicate since February so we weren't expecting to win anything for a while so this is great.

"I'm a Chelsea fan so I've bought my season ticket in one go and a laptop but obviously we'd love to win really big. We'll keep playing and who knows, maybe next time it will be £79 million!"

Other members of the syndicate are either still deciding how to spend their £2,853 share - or have already spent it!

William Cook, 24, from Lordswood is looking to buy an iPAD and possibly a new car, Richard Seemann, 44, from Chatham, has paid off a new porch for his house and Amy Beech, 20, from Maidstone has bought an iPAD, clothes and put some away for a rainy day.

Holidays are top of the list for some while others are saving.

Lorraine Popple, 25, from Gillingham, is putting her share towards a deposit for a new home and Terry Ladley, 61, from Faversham, will invest his.

Donna Docherty, 38, from Rochester, is buying stuff for her home and Lucy Sherwin, 25, from Walderslade, is buying a car, getting some holiday spending money, clothes and giving her husband some cash to spend on ˜car bits".

The winning numbers from the Lotto draw on Saturday, May 12 were 1, 5, 18, 21, 23, 33 and the bonus ball was 20.
