A GREENOCK pensioner is celebrating his first ever Scoop win after years of playing the game.
Former RAF sergeant George Parke, 77, and his wife Angela were over the moon to win £50 after successfully finding the playful pup on page nine of last Saturday's Tele.
Now the couple, who live in Union Street, will look forward to a lovely meal out with their winnings.
Angela, 74, said: "We are absolutely delighted to win, we really are.
"We have played Scoop for years and years but we have never won. Sometimes it is hard to find as well!
"We can't wait to spend our winnings. George had to go to the dentist so it could help with the bill, but I think we will use it to go out for dinner when my sister visits next week."
George, originally from Port Glasgow, spent 23 years in the RAF where he met Angela, who was also serving.
They spent many years in Germany before settling in Greenock, with George taking on various other roles, including a spell with the fire brigade in supplies.
To join George and become a Scoop winner look for the pup in the Tele today.
