£148m Lotto winner goes back to work – because he’s bored


EUROMILLIONS jackpot winner Adrian Bayford is going back to work – because he’s bored to tears holed up in his £6million mansion all day.
Adrian and GillianLOADED: Adrian and Gillian scooped £148million on the Euromillions lottery
Adrian, who became Britain’s second biggest winner when he scooped £148m in 2012, plans to open a record and film memorabilia shop in Cambridge.
The 45-year-old has already splurged £10,000 on Lady Gaga’s shoes as well as rails of costumes and boxes of vinyl records to stock his new store.
Adrian, from Carnoustie, Angus, ran a successful music shop in Suffolk until he and ex-wife Gillian struck lucky four years ago.
But despite living in the lap of luxury, the millionaire can’t wait to get stuck into the business again.
He said: “It is something I enjoy being involved with.
“People like music and they like getting their hands on it. Not everyone wants to buy online.”

John LennonLEGEND: Adrian is also selling a signed picture of John Lennon
The dad-of-two’s new shop, Black Barn Records, flogs everything from Star Wars figures to rare signed Beatles pictures.
One of the big ticket items on sale is a picture of John Lennon, signed by the music legend just weeks before he was shot dead in New York in 1980.
And enterprising Adrian says he wants to open at least a “couple more” shops and also set up his own vinyl-pressing plant in the UK.
