Big cheque for Orla Flanagan

Orla Flanagan was surely in a happy mood after her visit to the Navan O'Mahonys GAA clubhouse last week.

She was there at the request of the club's officials and was properly attired to observe all the social distancing requirements that currently prevail.

There might be no action on the pitch at Brews Hill, but there is action each Wednesday night as the numbers are selected in the popular club fundraiser, the weekly lotto.

It was on the eve of St Patrick's Day that Orla hit the jackpot this month with O'Mahonys when she correctly selected the right numbers - 3, 8, 11, 14 and won €14,450.

She collected the cheque last week - not sure if she was able to make the lodgement with the big cheque in one of the automatic machines that banks favour now, but it is understood that the transfer of funds was completed.

The next draw in the O'Mahonys lotto is this Wednesday evening.
