I've made a Lotto dreams come true

A LOTTERY winner is using his fortune to give people a real lift in his new role as a chauffeur.

Former bus driver and funeral director Peter Congdon, 76, who scooped £13.5million, found his calling after coming to the rescue of a bride during the pandemic.

When her wedding was cancelled four times and she could not get a car in time, Peter stepped in with one of his own luxury motors.

He said: "It was such a memorable moment, when the bride walked out, she was expecting to climb into her dad's car and instead, she saw my Bentley parked across the street.

"She wept so much that she had to go back in to get her make-up fixed."

Now the big-hearted grandadof-10 uses his own fleet of cars to help those who need them.

Peter, from Truro, Cornwall, said: "I think I've taken more than 25 Cornish brides to say 'I do'. I always turn up in my best suit to help make it the happiest day of her life, and the only payment I need is to see the joy on their faces."
