Unemployed Scottish cleaner wins lottery

An unemployed cleaner became the sixth person from Kilmarnock to win a seven-figure sum in the national lottery, making the southern Scottish town the luckiest place in Britain, said lottery organiser Camelot.

Rosemary Ferguson, 51, picked up a cheque for £2.2 million ($6 million) in the weekend's draw.

Just two months ago, former icecream saleswoman Georgina McIlvanney, 74, scooped £1.2 million. Nearly £12.5 million was paid out to residents last year alone.
