I would pack up and ship out to foreign shores - if I won anything that was truly substantial (ie: I mean a few million)

I live a life where I actually don't need too much to keep me happy - I don't need (or want) a huge amount of people around me.

I'd jaunt between some fab private tropical exotic beachhouse and somewhere in the middle of a forest - and be happy to become the next old Brigette Bardot, with my closest friends being at the end of a phone/keyboard and coming to visit.

If I won what this couple did... I'd probably do the same as you Lewis: give a lot of it away:

Sounds bliss!!
