Back to day job after 3.7m win

A British man is returning to his job as a bus driver after winning $3.7 million.

Kevin Halstead, 47, never has to work for a living again - but loves the job he started in 1994 so much he has decided to carry on doing it.

He gave in his notice straight after winning the National Lottery but has since decided he wants to go back to driving the 125 route between Bolton and Preston in North West England.

The father-of-one said: "I do miss working on the buses. When you've been doing something for 17 years and then you suddenly stop it does seem strange.

"It's the banter me and my mates had that I miss more than anything. I will come back in a couple of months on a casual basis, if and when I want."
