'Dream come true'"This is Unbelievable - it will take us some time to get our heads around this win and to organise ourselves," he said.
"This is A Dream come true.

"What is so exciting is that we will be able to share this money with children, grandchildren and extended Family Members . "

"I didn't sleep a wink All Night ," she added.
On Wednesday, The Family deposited the winning ticket for safe keeping with the National Lottery and arrangements are now being made for The Prize claim to be paid out in the next few weeks.

Mr Reilly said the win had whipped up excitement in Naul.
"I've never seen a buzz or anything like this.
