Aren't the chances of a Limerick person winning the Euromillions lottery jackpot for a second time exactly the same as the chances of a person from anywhere else winning it?

Your chances (and anybody elses chances, including Dolores McNamara's) of winning the Jackpot are over 76m to one (since you're allocated five numbers from 1 to 50, and two Lucky Star numbers from 1 to 9, nothing to do with where you buy the ticket or whether you've won before).

Your chances of winning a prize overall (from one of the 12 prize tiers) is 24 to one. Which means the woman who bought €40s worth of tickets has only a marginally bigger chance of winning a prize than a person who bought one.
