A lucky dad nearly lost out winning a £2M home - because he 'fancied a pint' at the pub.

Tom Steenson, 63, received a knock at the door telling him he'd scooped the four bed house and £250K in cash.

But at first he thought about not answering in case the call would “interfere with my trip to the pub''.

Tom, originally from Bolton but now living in Maidstone, did open the door and discovered he'd won the latest Omaze Million Pound House Draw in Devon.

He said ''missing that pint made me a millionaire - it’s the best pint I’ve never had!”
