From Ashes to Riches at the Big Chill Festival

GIBRALTAR, August 23, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- A 36 year old from Northwich returned to his campsite after an indulgent night of wild partying at the Big Chill Festival only to find his tent and all his personals in ashes. Help came in the least expected way when he called his mum and heard her shouts of joy after winning a GBP14,000 jackpot.

The weather gods seemed to be smiling on Timothy as he headed down to the Big Chill Festival last week to watch Massive Attack and Mr. Scruff perform live. A carpenter by profession, Tim had taken off the last 6 months to explore the country with his girlfriend Nina and was planning on heading back home after a few days of partying at the festival. On his last day at the event, a small fire broke out in one of the tents as a couple of guys tried to light a gas stove around 11pm. By the time Tim returned to his tent for the night, all that was left of his stuff were ashes.

Afraid he wouldn't have the money to get him and his girlfriend home the next day, he called his parents living in the nearby town of Sandbach hoping that they would be able to wire him some money by morning. His mum who enjoys playing at http://www.casino.com had just moments before won a GBP14,000 jackpot and was more than happy to help out. After sending her son the money, Tim was able to make it home from the festival by bus after arriving at Eastnor Castle Deer Park by hitchhiking.
