LUCKY dad Christopher Fry will have no problems sending his daughters to university after he won £7,500 in a competition.

Mr Fry, 49, of Ludmead Road, Corsham, won the windfall in an insurance company's promotional draw.

He said: "I have two girls on the threshold of going to university, this year and next year, and although we'd made provisions there was never enough to have totally covered it.

His elder daughter Jessica, 18, is off to Southampton University next year to read psychology.

Her younger sister Imogen, 17, may be going off to study the year after, depending on if she chooses to take a gap year.

"They say you don't ever get something for nothing, but it seems I have," said Mr Fry.
