I was a postmistress in Asdee for over 45 years, and everyday I'd be selling National Lottery tickets and Scratch Cards and of course chatting with customers about their dreams of what they would do if they ever won! 'I've seen so many happy faces over the years as people collect their prizes from the Post Office, so it's been lovely to experience the same joy myself!'
