So Im on a 7 hour bar shift today , its quiet and so the day dreaming begins...
In my head I have just won 6 million , congratulations u say., why thanks :)
So I have just brought a nice house , nothing huge , IKEA furnature and all that . We are building a rep room / unit in the garden , had my racks delivered and set up . And now I am planning my snakes , would like to add a ghost boa , an anery and few het boas . Would like to add some corns and a couple of hoggies. Got a nice display viv with an emerald tree boa in the living room .
And wud plan a new car , my 15 year old corsa wud be swapped for a golf , and I wud be off to America for a month before I get the snakes just in time for the donny show......
"excuse me law can I have a pint of carling pls..."
And I'm back in the room .
What wud u all do if u won the lottery ? |

I'd write up my notice like STRAIGHT AWAY.... buy mum a nice big house for her my 3brothers and my sister and Soxy.... my 21 year old bro would get a car as his test is next month, and my 17year sis would get a crash course in driving and a new car, also her uni fee's would b paid for...
My younger bro's would get cash in an account for when they turn 18
I'd would then leave Misssi with my sister to care for as she really wants a corn snake but mum dont want one in the house ( so plenty of practise!), and blueprints for a house for myself and the OH with a bunch of highly recommended builders... and lawrence lewellyn bowyn (not sure if thats how you spell it but would LOVE him to decorate my home)... and go travelling for 6months!
When I got back would start up my own business, in.... not sure what just yet, probably properties.... and then I would demand the OH give me lots of babies! :) |

I would buy a massive bit of land, build a private livery - give my little shetlands a suitable pasture, buy a beautiful riding horse and fund the job I have always wanted to do I wouldn't want loads of horses because I don't like to share my affections and I'd feel like I was favouring one :L But I would buy and break youngsters to sell on and run my yard using the natural horsemanship techniques - a round pen and huge HUGE paddocks are a must.
Aside from that I'd probably build a reptile unit More corns definitely! Ultramel anery, ghost, butter, snow and golddust stripe. Possibly also a bloodred Not much I suppose! |

Seems to be quite a lot of horsey people on here, and I probably wouldn't stop at one youngster, but have learnt I can only exercise one at a time aand owning 3 was hard work - but then with loads of money could employ people to to the ***t shovelling! |

Lol I wouldn't force how I look after my horses on other people It's just how I would choose to run my yard - the horses I have owned definitely gave twice as much back. |
