I would have my ex mother in law cased in concrete (tastefully, of course) and put on public display as a warning to all interfering old bats not to push people too far. Worth every single penny. |

The first thing I'd do would be have a blazing row with hubby because we both have very different views on what we'd do with it!!! Lucy x |

Pay all my debts off and buy the flat I'm living in so I can get the rent. Also I'd help mine and my partners family out if they needed it. I'd also donate a huge sum to UK children's charities :o) |

I always get told 'you wouldn't know what to do with it all if you won it' and I always reply 'Try me'. I have many many friends who could do with a bit of help and many charities that I would like to help. So long as I made sure I was secure and had enough to last me, and looked after my son too for his lifetime security, I could enjoy sharing it with others, so you'd better all be nice to me......... Oh well, nice to dream! |

I'd keep it a secret for a start ! would be scared stiff someone may try and kidnap my kids for a ransom !! I'd clear my debt's. On the quiet, I would buy the house I live in .. and the one next door and knock through ! I'd buy the little cottage that I grew up in .. (and that has been renovated and has stood empty for the last 3 years that I know off ! ??) as a weekend retreat .. full of happy memories x I'd put the rest in trust as a surprise for my kids for after I'd gone .... if there was any left for them !

I guess like most people, I would... pay off my mortgage. Go on a nice long holiday, buy a new car... give some to my family, and stick the rest in the bank |
