LUCKY teenager Greg Jordan is laughing all the way to the bank after scooping a cool £100,000 on the National Lottery Scratchcards.
The 17-year old from Chain Lane bought the special 'Olympic Team Scratch and Win' card at a newsagents in Hard Lane and just couldn't believe his luck when he hit the jackpot. He says the news still hasn't sunken in properly yet.
Greg, a Cowley High student told the Star: "I was absolutely gobsmacked when I won. I originally only bought one ticket and I won a pound with that so I bought another one and that was the jackpot ticket."
Greg now has the task of deciding how to spend his windfall and says he already has his eye on a new car.
