A person should have an opinion on everything, It becomes tact whether you reveal that opinion or not.

Just two country properties would do me.

One in Shropshire, preferably a 19th century farm and cottages.

One in Moama/Echuca in Australia.

Spend the best months, weather wise, in each country.

No wasnt me!
Dont do it so would be highly unlikely too! :lol:

Goodness I would be so scared to get all that. :shock:
I dont know what I would do...
Always thought if I had loads of money Id like to have a holiday home adapted for disabled people and elderly so they could go on holiday with family or friends with no problems. I still think I would actually. :idea:

Normal things like paying off debts and seeing my kids ok, treating family.
I really dont know what I would like :? I think if I could do all them things that would be enough

When the lottery first started out I worked out how much I would need for my ideal life; a nice country property, say six or seven bedrooms, in a couple of acres of garden, with a full time cleaner and gardener and part time staff to help out. Provision of living accomodation for the staff, pensions etc. paying the running costs as well as maintenance etc and an income of around the national average. Even then it added up to around £15,000,000 by the time taxes etc. had been taken into account.

I'd start by going in to work and telling them I was only working 3 days a week, and then only day shifts. That'd give me a bit of time to work out what I'd do with the rest of my life.
I'd probably buy an E-type, and a holiday home somewhere deserted, but it'd need to be close to the water, so my other half could go sailing. I could always buy him that large sail boat he's got his eye on (complete with proper loo, washing machine and tumble dryer!).
And I'd pay someone to finish all the bits and pieces that haven't yet been done on our house and garden!

I don't suppose they would have had much choice about going public, their names would have been all round the internet in no time anyway. They might as well get all the palaver over and done with quickly.
