I'd send most of it to Australia! (What would you do if you won the lottery?)

Advantages: a dream...

Disadvantages: ... won't happen!

I think £15 million would be about right as I wouldn't want to be greedy...

If I won the lottery the first thing I'd do is pay off our mortgage, loans & credit cards in full.

I'd then pay off my brothers' & sister's mortgages & give a large amount to each of my 4 favourite charities.

I'd pay for my eldest daughter to do her MA this year instead of having to work to save up to complete it.

My younger daughter is hoping to go to uni next year so I'd pop a load of £ in both of their accounts so they wouldn't have to worry about finances as I've always had to do.

I'd buy myself a little craft shop as I love making handmade cards & meeting crafty people.

The rest of the money I'd send out to Australia so my now-disabled brother could re-build his house so he'd never have to go into a home.

He's the nicest guy you could ever wish to meet & it's so unfair that he got a very rare infection in the top of his spine which changed him from being an active, sporty person into a pain-ridded but uncomplaining wonderful human being.

Although the money sadly could not help him to get better, it would, at least, make his life a bit easier. He needs floors re-inforcing for the heavy equipment he has to rely on, doors widening for wheelchair access & extra windows to make life more accessible for himself & his family.

If there was any left I'd go on a long holiday with my daughters (via Australia) after having been on a clothes shopping spree!

ahh - if only...

I'll let you know if I win more than a tenner!

Summary: a dream that will never be realised
