Euromillions

Like many, I often dream about winning the lottery, and what I'd do with all of that money. The Euromillions, however, take it to a whole other level. It's been rolling over several times recently and last night it was confirmed that a single British ticket holder has scooped the biggest ever lottery jackpot in Europe, winning a staggering £161 million in the latest draw. One hundred and sixty one million. Woaaaah! The winning numbers were 17, 19, 38, 42 and 45, and the Lucky Stars were 9 and 10, which authorities say had odds of 116 million to one. Ridiculous!

The ticket holder, who has not yet been identified, and may not have even checked their ticket, has just become the 430th richest person in the country. In fairness I would have expected them to be a lot lower in the list, top 50 at least! They will also almost be better off than David and Victoria Beckham (who recently welcomed their new baby daughter Harper Sever into the world) with their fortune of £165m. The winner will also earn over a ridiculous £9,000 a day in interest, and if the money was piled up in notes it would be as tall as Big Ben. So jel! So anyway this got me to thinking about what I'd spend all that money on. So here comes a long list...

· First of all I'd buy a one way ticket to New York, where I'd hit 5th Avenue HARD.
· I'd also buy an apartment out there.
·   I'd purchase the pair of Christian Louboutins that Kylie wore on the X Factor.
·   I'd get a cute little fluffy puppy.
·   I'd buy several chrome Range Rovers for myself and my friends. Pimpin'
·  I'd get my Mum, Dad and brother a nicer house, whatever cars they wanted and give them all 15 million each.
·  I'd buy Jazpups a gold plated collar, lead, bed and bowl.
·  I'd take my whole family on holiday, I'm not sure where.
·  I'd also go on a massive holiday with all my friends, again I'm not sure where.
·  I'd buy a meet and greet day with Britney for myself, Emma, T and Ryan.
·  I'd give each of my Twitter followers £1,000.
·  I'd pay for Rihanna to fly over, sing and dance and then stay the night with Jaz, Kelly and I.
·  I'd buy myself my own column in Heat magazine.
·  I'd buy a life-time supply of Kit Kat Pop Chocs and Aero Bubbles.
·  I'd buy a massive trampoline that took up the whole of the garden and just bounce around.
·  I'd employ a cocktail maker who would have to accompany me everywhere so I could have Strawberry Daiquiri's whenever I wanted them.
·  I'd go to the casino with Shelley and put £1,000 on green and laugh if I lost.
·  I'd also obviously give to charity. Ones in particular being 'Sponser a puppy', Great Ormond Street and Cancer Research.

Having written all of that out, I've just realised that I haven't actually checked my ticket for last nights draw. So instead of being a wish list, it could in actual fact be a shopping list... *checks ticket* or not! Bugger.
