The Lottery

[jaysay]

Tonight the lottery is £18 roll over, what would you do if you won so much money. Myself I would make sure all my family were all okay for life, I would make donations to my favourite charities, and would look after my mates who have helped me over many years since the onset of poor health

I don't do the lottery, but if I ever did and came into so much money I'd like to think I'd see my family and real friends right. I'd also try to use some of it to give back to good causes and maybe some kind of local facilities.

I'd also use it to fund an epic world tour and a house with a rather large garage/workshop!

I would give some to my family to make sure they are allright! Move near water preferably sea , a river would surfice!
Give money to help children have better education particularly Art and Craft and Photography in Lancashire. Meaning more teachers in Art and technicans ( of which i am one). I feel that the education authorities bypass the art side in education, which is so valuable in childrens growth. Pay people to work in youth clubs instead of expecting them to volunteer.
I am all for getting people to be creative as it is one of the best healing remedy,s
Learning self worth and pride in oneself for making something unique is so gratifying! Freeing up with painting and clay is so beneficial for anyone! When will school management,education authoritys , government fully waken up to this? I hope its in my life time but sadly doubt this!
Its a can of worms sat on a back burner!

Would take me around three days to stop screaming 'Yes, yes, yes' (don't know what the neighbours would think ) and running around the house like a mad fool.

After that, of course, as most people, family and friends first, then me, me,me for a while .. lots of places in the world would like to see.

Later .. who knows ?

Same really, family and friends would be sorted, then I would like to use the extra time I hopefully have to do something useful and worthwhile. A few years ago we had IVF, the most rewarding thing we have ever done but also the most difficult for many reasons. I would like to help people in similar situations, maybe a support group or something.

I don't do the lottery but if I did and if I won that much I'd help out friends and family, then I'd buy a house overlooking Morecambe Bay and one in Tunisia. I know exactly the one in Tunisia which I'd like. I've had my eye on it for a year or so.

With 18 million you could probably buy a boat and be your own Captain Granny!

I'd never get Busman to agree to a cruise. He doesn't like being on water.

It would be nice to own a house in Andalucia! I watched some old " House in the sun" episode today. Not sure why they put them on?

I doubt you'd own it for long...isn't that where developers can grab your land and you have to pay them for the privilege?

Is it? What beautiful countryside it look to be!
