What would you do with it?

Had a rubbish few months (as most of us have) been quite ill and lost my grandad in December.
Last week, my mum rang to tell us she’s giving all the children £5000 from his will. I’ve never really had any ‘Extra’ money before as it generally all goes on the mortgage, bills etc.
What would you do with it? The options are: 1). Save it in case of an emergency situation
2). New bedroom for Dd and do up the house a little.
3). Pay off some debts
4). Special holiday in the future-Hawaii/California
5). Buy a cheap camper van and renovate it for weekend beach trips.
6). Something else

Are you paying interest on the debt? If yes I’d pay that off first if not then I wouldn’t. I would save it for now, would g do anything immediately with it and look into a big holiday for when this is all over.
