First thing I'd do would be hot foot it to Southampton with my loved ones and very bestest friends (yes, Lady Godiva - that means you!!) and hop on a fab ship together with a team of financial advisers and set sail in luxury where nobody but those I chose could 'get at me'. Then after about 4 - 6 weeks of that I would ensure my nearest and dearest were set up and then I'd probably start my own charity but I'd need to give serious consideration as to what. I'd give to my favourite charities that are already established but I'd want to really make my mark somewhere. Looking at my mothers plight I'd probably start something new for our elderly population that have mental health problems.

FAINT!! I could not win an arguement. On the off chance that I could and would win millions, I would do the same as all you normal loving people, and look afeter my loved ones. For me, I don't honestly think I want anything after that. Deanna x

I wouldnt go into hiding either....Iwouldnt need to, as I wouldnt advertise the fact that I had won....discreetly I would give to charties of my choice and relatives..i.e my Sis.. Lisa Biscuit..my dad, hubbies mam & dad..and hubbies brothers...of course i wouldnt work anymore, and i would move further into the country as well as having a house abroad, I would like to think that that much money wouldnt change me but who knows :)

Pay someone to carry on my family research and get all the certificates. 3-4 bed properties in a couple of countries for hol's and hire (free to friends and relies of course) Couple of cars. Partner would like an Aston Martin DB...9? share it around to family and friends. Various charities...any of the previously mentioned plus RSPCA. A few of the previous suggestions sound good AND.....HAVE FUN..YIPPIE. Sue

I would spend 30% on Wine, 30% on Women, 30% on Song and the rest I would waste.

We talked about this last night! I thought that much could ruin your life e.g. kids under threat kidnapping etc. However, I wanted to buy a lifeboat (a big proper one) husband wanted 4 -6 racehouses to put in training, both agreed buy a house on Isle of Man and I thought we could hire a private plane to visit regularly (husband thought he would prefer his own Lear jet in order to visit racecourses as well). Set up trust fund for son and daughter as well as buy a house for them. Put £2 mill in trust fund for g.children - only to draw from it when they reach 30 yrs. Build a house/bungalow somewhere on lots of land (preferably by the sea) and have a fulltime housekeeper/cleaner. Then sit back and think where money could be used well - charity wise and not 'creamed off'. Ann

Here's my list - Buy my son a Thames Riverside penthouse Buy a large home (with indoor pool, Jacuzzi & gym) in a peaceful part of the countryside Buy my husband the Ferrari he's always wanted Engage a chauffeur (I hate driving) Employ the best plastic surgeon, dentist and Pilates expert (should get rid of a million or two!) Visit all the relatives I've found since I started researching my family Buy a house for a good friend and go into a business partnership with her Give large donations to my favourite animal charities and sponsor several children and old people in developing countries Travel to all the countries I'd like to visit Go to all the concerts and ballet performances I want to see and visit all the internationally famous art galleries ... then go shopping in the £1 shop and buy myself some clothes in a street market with what was left. CB >|<

Give £50m to fifty deserving charities. Gift £1 m to each member of our families (in our generation) Set up Trusts for the children in both our families, to pay for their further education Throw a party for friends - drinks on the house. Throw a party at school to celebrate! Buy a holiday chalet in Switzerland. Send funds to son and wife to assist them in buying new home Throw out all my clothes and start again. Allocate part of what's left to savings, for our old age. Have a new kitchen installed. Upgrade car (but nothing flash). Now what have I got left? Enjoy... Lily

1) Go on holiday to get over the shock 2) Pay off all debts including mortgage 3) Buy my dad a house, and pay for a private box at the spurs ground with season ticket. Open an account for him and fill it so he is comfortable for the rest of his life. 4) Make the rest of my close family comfortable, pay off mortages, or give equal sums of cash. 5) By hubby his jag. 6) remember all the good genuine friends that I have got and give them a finantial boost. 7) Support my kids school. 8) Donate some money to my local baby unit for equipment. 9) Donate to our nearest hospice and to a childrens make a wish charity and others likewise. 10) The rest of the money will sit there gathering interest, while being used to support my friends, family and charities I hold dear.

I would buy houses and cars for mine and Marks parents and sister in law. Buy my mams twin brother and his girlfriend a villa in Benidorm so he can escape his ex wife Buy my mam a new knee. Buy my dad lots of beer. Buy Mark some new trousers as he insists on wearing ones with huge holes in them and looks like a tramp. Give a lot to the Anthony Nolan Trust. Have a couple of my sticky out ribs taken out lol. Natalia x

Buy all 4 of my kids a nice house and invest some for them so the interest would pay the exhorbitant council tax! The same for my brother and his 2 daughters. Go to visit my relatives in Canada (I'd have to go by boat though - don't do planes!) and take the whole family on a train through the Rockies. Refurbish Langley Vale Village Hall to bring it in line with 2005. I've been on the committee and fundraising to modernise this for the past 25 years and I've had enough! LOL Oops I forgot the new cars for everyone, and the new house for Doug and me. I suppose I should do the same for my brother-in-law and his family too :o( Blow it I can afford it, and to let bygones be bygones. Well that gets rid of about £20,000,000! Give to Cancer Research, to Macmillan Nurses, to Childline, to NSPCC, to Princess Alice Hospice, to RNLI, and buy my Mother-in-Law a top of the range, state of the art hearing aid so I don't have to keep repeating myself (Can you hear me Mother? LOLOL). That's another £30,000,000. I'm over half way there! Sue xx

well i could stop being so worried about how long i'll have to be off work sick with no pay LOL Nicky.x

Top of the list? Can you guess? THE PINK FUND (but I'd still do the Trek!). MacMillan Nurses The Sick Children's Trust A couple of hospices which are very important to my family. A house and comfortable income for my parents. Same for my brother. Sufficient uni funding, a car, a house and income (in trust) for each of my children. My dream house and maybe a couple in other parts of the world. A jag for my hubby and maybe let him retire early. Give my best friends enough to start the business they've always longed to have. Unlimited travel. Start up my own dance school. Set up a sports scholarship. Guess that'll do. Daisy

Cars !! I hadn't even mentioned cars !!! I think I'd need at least 4... lol

Needless to say I would be equally generous towards my friends Bec :) more things for my list buy a new ground etc for my local football club, with the intention of getting them into the football league so that MK has a proper team at last (you can't count the MK Dons). give the local hospital a few million to expand their SCBU unit

Aw Bec - you sweetheart!! You can have a mint choc ice cream too, lol. xx

I would sort my family out, buy a house, hubby a car and a recording studio, also set my children up in their own businesses, sponsor lots of dogs for the blind, deaf, disabled, donate to lots of charities and research of diseases and give lots of aid to Africa and other areas where poor things are starving. Then, I would go shopping, go out to celebrate and invest what was left. M.

Anything I liked!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Anne :))))))))))))))))))))))

1. I'd buy the Arts centre where I work from the council then they will have to keep their interfering noses out. 2. I'd see the family 'right'. 3. I'd buy a house in my favourite part of Wales. 4. Invest lots so we don't have to work again (apart from at the Arts Centre which I love) 5. Substantial donations to my 3 favourite charities. Gwynne
