LOTTO lout Mikey Carroll is working in a Scottish biscuit factory.

Ā 

Carroll, 30, the self-styled King of Chavs who blew every penny of his £10million windfall, is now clocking on at the famous Walkers shortbread factory near Elgin, Moray.

Ā 

He is living in nearby Urquhart, where locals say he was claiming benefits before he started work

on Monday.

Ā 

Elgin is 525 miles north of Swaffham, Norfolk, where Carroll lived in his notorious mansion.

Ā 

He has been in Moray for six months after revealing last year that he had 70p in his bank account.

Ā 

One local said: ā€He’s got the same English accent, though he has lost a lot of weight – that’s why no one recognised him right away – but within short order of him starting, there was no doubt it was him.

Ā 

ā€œHe’s not been anti-social since he’s been here, he’s just got his head down and got on with the job.

Ā 

ā€œYou don’t expect to see a lottery millionaire with the overalls on getting stuck in. Fair play to him.

Ā 

ā€œHe told people he has been on benefits so he’s chuffed to be working and earning.ā€

Ā 

Carroll was 19 and claiming £42- a-week Jobseekers Allowance when he scooped £9,736,131 in 2002.

Ā 

He bought a mansion and soon had neighbours complaining about the demolition derby-style car races he held in the grounds.

Ā 

Carroll gave away £3million to friends and family and last year, the life-long Rangers fan revealed that he was finally skint.

Ā 

He had invested Ā£1million in the club and got the cash out before they went into administration – but now he has blown that cash too.

Ā 

Carroll was portrayed as a sneering lout on a TV documentary that charted his lifestyle.

Ā 

He said he blew his Ā­fortune on holidays, handouts to family and friends, cars, bling, drugs and booze.

Ā 

He still buys lottery tickets in the hope of another big win.

Ā 

Carroll is thought to be living at a £145,000 two-bedroomed bungalow in Urquhart, apparently owned by his wife Sandra.

Ā 

He is estranged from Sandra and their daughter Brooke. He also has another child with hairdresser Gemma Peake.

Ā 

After his lottery win, Carroll ballooned to 22 stone.

Ā 

But a source in Elgin said: ā€œThere is no way he is that weight now.

Ā 

ā€œHe is well below that. He seems much fitter and healthier-looking than he did on the TV.ā€

Ā 

Carroll never wanted to spend his fortune quietly – he aimed to rub every resentful person’s nose in it.

Ā 

The former binman, who was wearing an electronic tag when he bought his winning ticket and has been jailed twice since then, said: ā€œI just went wild for 10 years and now I’m back to reality.

Ā 

ā€œI’ve experienced more in a decade than most people would in two lifetimes but I’ve no regrets and I’d do it all again.ā€

Ā 

In 10 years of excess, Carroll gave away millions to friends and family, paid £750,000 to his ex-wife, spent at least £1.5million on drink and drugs, £1.2million on property, £500,000 on cars, £500,000 on holidays including 100 trips to Spain and £100,000 on jewellery.

Ā 

Carroll revelled in his notoriety and had the phrase ā€œKing of Chavsā€ emblazoned on the side of his Mercedes van.

Ā 

He said: ā€œAt the height of my drinking, I’d get 20 cases of Stella a time and the local cab firm would keep bottles of vodka and whisky at their office and I’d call their drivers to drop it straight round.

Ā 

ā€œI was doing Ā£12,000 a week on drugs at the height of the madness. It nearly killed me. I ended up in hospital numerous times.

Ā 

ā€œWhen I was smoking crack I collapsed, had a fit and was spewing up blood. I did that 10 or 15 times.

Ā 

ā€œI’d come round and think nothing had happened because I couldn’t remember, but I’d be like a cripple for two days Ā­because all my muscles would seize up. I smoked crack, I was eating ecstasy pills and snorting MDMA powder.

Ā 

ā€œOnce when I was doing acid, I was going to the loo and I thought the toilet had jumped up and run away. I thought trees were trying to grab me.

Ā 

ā€œI smoked heroin but I never liked it. I did pretty much everything else. But not for a few years now.ā€

Ā 

Carroll also spent wildly on prostitutes. He said: ā€œI’ve slept with over 4000 women. I once slept with more than 20 in one day.

Ā 

ā€œI’m Ā­single at the Ā­moment, I’ll just take the next s*** as it comes.

Ā 

ā€œI still get attention from women even though the money’s gone.ā€
