London, July 24 : A Brit woman has made a fortune of 1.2million pounds by winning a lottery – with the help of her dead dad.

The 44-year-old, Susan Crossland, carried on using Barrie’s numbers – 6, 9, 13, 18, 29, 30 – after he died from cancer.

When the mother checked her ticket on July 19 she found she had picked up 138 pounds with her three lines.

But she was amazed to see she’d matched all six of her dad’s numbers.

“It’s a real shame he isn’t here to share the winnings,” The Sun quoted her, as saying.

Susan, married to dairy worker Michael, said that she had a feeling her dad was looking out for her on the week of the draw as she kept seeing white feathers in the air.

The day after he died in July 2006 a white feather landed on her doorstep, which she took to be a sign from him.

She said: “My win must be fate, which is why I saw the feathers.” (ANI)
