Winning the Lottery

[LottoWinner]

I'm winning the double rollover tonight - got my ticket and feeling spectacularly lucky. Previous tickets I've hoped to win haven't come through, so I'm going into tonight with confidence and seeing if that makes a difference.

Planned out my winnings which covers the 5 mil ~ dream house purchase, enough to invest and draw on for a decent style of living for the rest of my life, helping family/friends clear their mortgages/debt. Buying a Birkin 😎

AIBU to ask what I'd be sending you with some of the rest? I have about £400,000 to play with, though want to spread it around a bit. Only overly indulgent gifts you'd never buy yourself but secretly really, really want are allowed.

NGL I'm having so much fun on this thread I don't really care if it cuts into my 'lavish holiday' fun a little 😉

I have everything crossed for you! Set for life wouldn't cover the mortgage for my dream home, so I stopped playing it 😂

I'd like a garage conversion into a craft room and library.

Thanks.

A Chanel black boucle jacket.

As I'm about to retire at the end of this year it will be worn weekly even if only to waitrose.

I know! Unfortunately it was not me, but not going to lie I did have a ticket and also plans for it 😂

A catio please, garden-sized, so that my timid cat can go outside without being bullied. And a lovely new picnic bench so I can sit out there and watch her.

Of course! What a trip that would be - not completely up my alley but I'd love to see pictures ✨

I think I can manage that 😂

😂 I'll cover TWO bags!

You are, of course, very welcome to sit on it to drive your car, in the manner of Mr Bean 😂. Just don't forget the long-handled mop.

I rotate between lucky dips and, if I'm feeling lucky, blinking my eyes really fast and picking whichever number they're drawn to first 😂

Ah, you're too kind!

I was more surmising what I would do if I won, so the mansion is definitely on me!

Mind you... I probably should buy a ticket if I want a chance of winning!

😂 Done! One year a festival I went to had a charity do a 'loo twinning' ~ they set up proper toilets near the stages and if you committed to buying a toilet in Africa you got a weekend loo pass. They made a fortune!

Yeah! Don’t want to be greedy.

Yes! Will you have a full sized wall of wool/supplies? If so can I help organise it? 🌟

Oooh lovely! Sure 🙂

Cuteee! I wonder if we can get a custom built bench with seats one side and a cat climby tower on the other 😍

@Gulbekian that made me chuckle! I was thinking maybe I'll buy two benches and leave one up there for when people need lifts 😉

Please could I have a little flat to retire into in Brighton or is that too greedy?

Please can I have about 10k, that would upgrade my plane tickets for me and my boys to business class on our once in a lifetime to Japan. It would also cover some special treats when we are there. My sons have medical conditions (one is a wheelchair user) and having proper seats for the long journey would be amazing. At the moment I'm getting DVT socks for all and sitting at the back so we are near the loos.

Coffee machine pretty please. One of the all singing, all dancing bean grinding ones :)

Two donkeys plus a field and stables to keep them in please. Thanks in advance.

There are some gorgeous wishes on here, I hope you win OP.

I am very taken with faberge egg and the cat tunnel, but rather than copy I shall ask for a giant squishmallow to nap on plus a huge box of Friar’s buttered almonds.

£400,000? Couple of packets of Duchy Original biscuits?

I bought my first home last year (all by myself, I'm super proud but now officially broke) and finally have my own little garden. I'd love it if you'd make it all pretty for me, a little veg patch and a little green house and a nice patio for my two beautiful dogs to sit out on in the summer.

Oh edited to add and maybe some solar panels so I can afford to put my heating on too. Hope I'm not sounding greedy? 😘
