Still not quite sunk in I think - DD1 proved she's good at maths by telling me how much that was each......:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: - in her dreams......:D

OH was there when I opened envelope - but thought I was winding him up about the amount......:rolleyes: as if I would hehehe.

Plans:
Bunkbeds and sliding door wardrobe for DD2s room as she's now bedless...:o but as she prefers sharing with her sister that's not been urgent. Her room is v. small so the idea is they sleep/keep their clothes in there and share the bigger room as a playroom/lounge, etc.

Bathroom - has been waiting to be done for three/four years - side panel currently held together with brown packing tape - such a good look - not....:eek:
Garden - I could probably spend the lot just on doing this but shall have to restrain myself - might look at new shed -come- summer house...

Camera - have been looking at getting a reasonably good camera but OH's also getting arthritis in his knuckles so finding it difficult to find a camera that's not too fiddly - means we can up the budget a bit if necessary.

The cheque can take up to a month so gives me some time to plan how best to use this windfall to make our lives a bit easier. (must admit although I love the idea of just going mad on a spending spree I know I'd feel better seeing how far I can stretch this....:rotfl: )

Might treat myself to new leather jacket/coat if there's anything left by the time I've got the priority stuff....:j

Just realised that I never went in for the 'this will be mine' but I've already had two things that would probably have been on the list - a big cash win, and a vip trip to Arsenal......how strange is that.....:D

Has anyone else had a friend request from a strange Argentinian man (strange as in I don't know him, not that he's 'strange' - although he might be....:eek: ).........I don't appear to have any mutual friends with him

I dunno - come into a bit of money and everyone wants to be your friend....:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:
