Nice car and a cruise! Nothing would make me stop comping, being doing it too many years now xxxx
Good luck to us all xxxx#JusticeForGrenfell0 -
most of it would go straight towards the mortgage and might treat myself to a holiday as well0

Would pay of the second mortgage,mine and the wife's other debts and have about £15,000 left,a holiday to Australia and a newish car should take care of that.
Then i would still have the mortgage and monthly bills to pay but it wouldn't be such a struggle,i would still carry on comping and i don't think the wife would moan about me spending so much time on the pc anymore

I'd fritter it away on holidays, a nice car and a lot of partying! I'm only 20, might as well live while I'm young and worry about mortgages etc when I'm too old to party so hard!

I would help out my two DS and then try to get back on the property ladder, (fell off about 8 years ago!) I would still keep comping tho, it's a great hobby, safer than drugs or alcohol, and I get great pleasure from a win, even if it is a bag of crisps!!! :rotfl:A-Z Challenge 2013ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZThanks to all who take the time & effort to post. You are all stars!!:A0

I'd pay my mortgage off and have just enough left over for a holiday.I would carry on comping although I could throttle my postman who doesn't appear until 3-5pm.When its my days off the tension is unbearable watching him come up my avenue.0
