In this short interview in The Barrie Examiner, comping enthusiast Chandler and her out-of-work partner Chris Fallis admit this couldn't have come at a better time for the couple: "We were in dire straits," Chandler said. "We had just remortgaged our house to cover debt. This is an extreme 180."

"I enter contests as a hobby," Chandler added. "I expect to win. But I was quite stunned. This is a big score."
