carry on working, or give it all up and live life to the full? I think I would like to keep on working but have more time out for holidays and family.

I was thinking of the 7 - 10 million pounds win. My little £10 wins won't do much even for a bus fare to somewhere LOL

I don't work now so that bit doesn't apply but I might let the OH give up! LOL I would ensure my children are taken care of financially and enough in my bank to bring in a reasonable income, then take off to see the world and spend spend spend! Mags xx

Hi Bryan, you have a good point there. Money can't buy good health. Good luck on the results.

At my age Trish, I would give up work. I have long had the dream to own my own guest house but as I refuse to do the National lottery on principal, there is no chance. What I could win on the Monday lottery would not be enough to buy & equip a guest house so I would visit family & friends in NZ & America & then move closer to my daughter. Vivienne xx

OK 'when' I win I shall work for a couple of weeks and then go on a good long holiday for a month. Come back to sort the house out (clean/ hoover etc - no I don't want a cleaner in thanks very much). Perhaps another couple of weeks work and then go off again on another little break - all that cleaning will wear me out!!!!! ;-))))))
