标题: 赢得1亿4800万英镑的母亲开始运营儿童游乐中心
一位两个孩子的母亲在赢取1亿4800万英镑的乐透大奖后选择重新开始工作,她运营了一家儿童游乐中心。

Gillian Bayford,40岁,和她的丈夫Adrian,41岁在获得令人咂舌的欧洲百万彩头奖后双双退休,最近他们决定买下他们家乡的一个亏损企业。

她说:“当时没有为当地孩子打造任何设施。”

“我们希望能让孩子们有所去处。我们希望能找回一些快乐。”

Gillian,育有一子一女,说每周有两天,她将待在Rascals游乐中心里。

目前她正亲自招募工作人员,准备5月4日的开幕。

她和Adrian过去需要节衣缩食来给他们的孩子准备生日派对,就在过去被称为Cheeky Chimps的游乐中心。

她补充道:“时间不充裕,但是我们仍然会准备部分预算来给孩子所渴望的派对。”

“孩子们邀请了半个班的同学来参加,他们过得很快乐。”

Gillian在去年8月赢得大奖后,辞去了医疗助理的工作。

Adrian则决定关闭自己的音乐制品店,因为向他们寻求资助的人在店外扎起了帐篷。

这对夫妇已经在泰晤士报富豪榜上排到了516位,住在一栋6百万英镑的豪宅中。

但是他们还是跟以前的朋友关系很好,也没有把他们的孩子送去私立学校。

Gillian说我们不希望生活因大奖而改变。我的主要精力还是在我的朋友,孩子和家人身上。

“不管你有多少钱,没有朋友和家人陪伴你什么都不是。”

Mum who won £148m on lottery going back to work to run kids' play centre

A mum of two who won a £148million lottery jackpot is going back to work – running a children’s play centre.

Gillian Bayford, 40, and husband Adrian, 41, retired after their amazing EuroMillions windfall but have decided to buy the failing business in their home town.

She said: “At the moment there’s nothing for children around here.

"We wanted to give them somewhere to go. We’re hoping to bring back some fun.”

Gillian, who has a son and a daughter, said she will be at Rascals Funhouse in Haverhill, Suffolk, one or two days a week.

She is currently personally recruiting staff ready for the May 4 opening.

She and Adrian had to scrimp and save in the past to pay for their children’s birthday parties at the centre, which was then known as Cheeky Chimps.

She added: “Times were tight but we made a point of trying to budget for it and get the party they wanted.

"Both of them had half of their class there, they had a great time.”

Gillian quit her job as a healthcare assistant after the win in August.

Adrian decided to close his music shop after people wanting money began camping outside.

The couple are now number 516 on the Sunday Times rich list and live in a £6million mansion.

But they still have the same friends and have not moved their kids to private school.

Gillian said: “We’ve tried not to let it change us. My main aims are still my friends, family and children.

"No matter how much money you have, you wouldn’t be anybody without friends and family behind you.”
