TWO people are celebrating today after winning £1,000 each thanks to their lucky postcode.

The Masterson Avenue, Read, neighbours netted the windfall when BB12 7PL was announced as a Daily Prize winner with People’s Postcode Lottery on May 26.

Ambassador Danyl Johnson sent his well-wishes to the winners. He said: “Congratulations to our winners! What a great surprise for them, I hope this news has made their day.”
