On Friday, Fiona got a call from Ray Foley that changed her life in an instant. Fiona from Louth joins Alison to chat about becoming €312,000 richer — and why it still doesn’t feel real!!
Fiona, who works at a pharmacy in Dunleer, shares how the win couldn’t have come at a better time as she and her boyfriend Connor renovate a cottage and how they were saving so hard to make the ever growing list of work required.
Plus: Connor turned 30 this weekend! And a brilliant shout-out to the team at Donald McGoey Pharmacy who were there to share her amazing moment.
