Dan said: "Since the start of lock down in late March I have been trying to score three treble 20s for the famous 180 score in darts.

"I bought the dart board at the end of March when schools went into lock down to help teach my daughter Molly maths.

"I quickly realised that if we both practice everyday we could become pro - that didn't really work out.

"On September 30 I got my score. When I got it, I did a little air punch.

"My dog Yogi and my wife Bridie were both excited but I'm not sure either of them really understood the achievement."
