The Lotto results are in and someone in the east of the country has won a lot of money

Not bad for a Wednesday.

We wish it was us.

It has been a horrible day weather wise all over the country today and we spent most of the day thinking to ourselves, is our sunny summer over for good?

However, you’d gladly swap a couple of weeks of sunshine for a big lump sum of money and for someone in the east of the country, that lump sum is heading their way.

The lucky punter won a massive €500,000 in Wednesday night’s Lotto Plus one draw where the numbers were 13, 19, 22, 25, 26, 30 and a bonus number of 9.

As well as that, two people matched five and the bonus and won €5,000 each in the plus one draw turning their wet Wednesday into a wonderful Wednesday.

The winning numbers in the main draw on Wednesday night were 6, 10, 15, 25, 34, 45 and the bonus number of 42 and seventeen lucky people matched five numbers in that draw and won €1,779 each in that draw.

Nobody managed to claim the big prize of €5.3 million and it will rollover to Saturday night’s draw where the total jackpot will be just over €6 million.

There was no overall winner of the €250,000 prize for the Lotto Plus two draw but one person did manage to match five numbers and the bonus winning €2,500 in prize money.

For the record, the numbers for the Lotto Plus two draw were, 18, 33, 36, 38, 40, 46 and a bonus number of 45.
