    I'd share it with my 3 brothers and sisters and my mum / dad - £10k each would help everyone with their bills.

    Retiring to Spain has changed my world

    Ha ha Riq, would it cost that much??
    I am male, 23 years old, 1 accident and drive about 20,000 miles a year.

    So it will cost a tidy sum anyway! :(

    I would love a new bathroom. The suite is pink, dated and a bit bashed.
    Can't afford it though, not even the tiles :doh:

    I've been entering a few competitions lately, and up to now, not won a thing.
    Maybe I should scout about for comps with a prize of a new bathroom .

    i would give anything to have her back how she was a year ago but for the past year she has really suffered with emphysema which distroys the lungs and she was on oxygen 24-7 as well the medication... nothing can be done so now she is in a better place.
    thanks for your words my friend... we really dont know what to do..
