I would donate some to the Pink Fund then I wouldn't have to worry (which I am doing) about raising the £3500 sponsorship and could go to the Sahara and enjoy(?) myself with the rest of the mad lot. Then stick the rest in the bank, get over the shock of winning and then go on a spending spree with friends and family. Jxx |

I'd buy a nice house, a nice car, top up the Pink Sahara fund have a relaxing holiday (with toilets and a nice comfy bed) with my loved ones and have a big party to which you would all be invited. Jack x |

Heard this morning that someone I know has just won £250,000 on the lottery. She lost her husband last year (died suddenly whilst on holiday), so lets hope it brings her some happiness. |

All the money in the World can't buy you love/good friends. I would give 10% to Charity, a quarter to both hubbie and son, £1,000 cqs to all our young relatives and tell them to enjoy it, OK the students would p..s it up the wall, but so what? Throw out most of my clothes and have a lovely time buying new, get a new car, install new kitchen, invest some for old age (one foot in the door!), make a new Will..... Lily (have I spent it yet?) |

I'd clear my debts so that i could afford to get my own place and start a family. I'd buy the rents somewhere in Torquay (it may finally stop them constantly going on about living down there), buy the house that we live in now and give it to my baby brother coz he loves the place, buy the in-laws a camper van and send them off to Scotland to get them out of my hair and most importantly...... i'd give some to pink for all the wonderfull stuff she's doing at the mo I'd also give some to the Heart Foundation in the hope that it will save someone the heartache (sorry, no pun intended) that we went through with Nan. c x oh and i'd finally have Nan put on the Headstone with Granddad, as we havn't been able to afford it since we buried her. |

I like Wendy's best of all and hope and pray I dont turn out like her MIL! First I would pay off ALL my credit cards, take care of son and family and friends and then I would take off and travel to all those places on my list. BC |
