                    Besides scream, :eek: what would you do if you won £50,000.:rolleyes:
It would be a dilemma in our household as we owe about £44,000 on our mortgage, but loads on credit cards and loans.
We have about 6 years to go on the mortgage, but god knows how long on the loans and cards.
It's all a dream isn't it, but someone has to win don't they, the lottery I mean.

            I'd buy an Audi S3 for £25k and then spend the rest of the money insuring the thing! "I'm not from around here, I have my own customs" "I'm not from around here, I have my own customs"

            With no debt and no mortgage I'd give half away to my children, treat my friends to a slap up day out, donate some to charity and spend the rest on travel." The greatest wealth is to live content with little."
