Gary Hamilton, a 64-year-old exam invigilator from Dartford, Kent, has won over five thousand pounds on the free online lottery, Pick My Postcode!

Gary, who also works as a match day steward at Lord’s Cricket Ground and volunteers with the Imperial War Museum, recently saw his postcode picked on Pick My Postcode for the second time. Gary first joined Pick My Postcode in 2017. Back in 2018, he previously won £10 on the Stackpot draw along with his Bonus which was £23 at the time. After his first win, he continued to check the site diligently, sometimes a couple of times a day, and built his bonus. His patience has paid off as over the years he grew his bonus substantially, meaning that despite once again only winning £10 on the stackpot draw, he walked away with an incredible £5,877.80 in total.
When asked how it felt to win for a second time, Gary said: “It was a big surprise to win again and the money will certainly come in handy.”
As for how he plans to spend his winnings, Gary admitted he hasn’t decided just yet. “It could go towards a holiday or something for the home,” he said.
Gary went on to say: “It’s real and it’s free to play. My winning twice just goes to show that patience and perseverance pays off!” Gary hopes there’s a hat trick of wins in his future, as after a win your Bonus doesn’t reset when you win. It only continues to grow if you keep checking the site.
The site offers multiple opportunities for your postcode to be picked every single day. Pick My Postcode has 14,009 active members in Kent and since 2011, the residents have won a total of £98,965.09. Gary’s second win proves that checking Pick My Postcode takes only moments but could make a real difference.

Really striking images and music - as others have said, reminiscent of Bladerunner. Something very different and imaginative; I really like it and will look forward to future instalments.

Love the track and the video, very Bladerunner.. Great for angry rebels everywhere.. Hate the beat tracker graphic on the edge of the video... too distracting.. another great tune though... thank you

You're welcome! The good news is that there are three more of these to come at some point. The bad news is that they all have that tracker on them. Sorry :-|

I've always [well since the early 80s] been a fan of Vangelis's sound track to Blade Runner, and there are plenty of phrases that reminded me of that opus, but not sufficient, I hope, to trigger a copyright strike.
That said, what a stunning composition! In goodness how many years of listening to these videos on PMP I'm genuinely glad to say I'm moved to discover more about the artist and the album.

Thank you so much for your kind comments! I am a fan of Vangelis, and Bladerunner too - I saw it when it was first released, totally groundbreaking movie. There are four parts to my story, and you'll see the others here over the next few weeks. It gets less Dystopian and more escapist as it progresses, and the music changes style too. I hope you enjoy it.

I quite like the music, & the video reminds me of the film "The 5th Element".

Interesting. I never thought of it like that, but I think you're definitely on to something there! JMJ is certainly a huge influence on me, as I grew up in the 1970s. The remaining three tracks (which you'll see over the next few weeks here) get a little more Synthwave as they go on.

I think the postcode picker needs a good vacuuming, get rid of the weevils.

Not one of my usual go-to genres but I really liked 720's Take Me Back. A haunting beat, and mature musical sensibilities. Nice :)

Could it be one of the ads which pauses in the hope that the viewer would take an action or interact with the ad and you just have to hit play again?

The Pandora one did appear to be frozen for me too, but eventually it vanished and went into the video.
Which wasn't for me, but each to their own.
