A landcruiser? tyres and suspension? A shiny motorbike? A rusty motorbike? A trip? A winch bumper? A little puppy! Buy gold?!! Or, All of the above!!
(Lets just take it as read that a percentage of this will be going up the wall...)

£10K isn't that much nowadays, wouldn't even pay 25% of my debt. So to answer your question, if someone gave me £10k, I'd invest the maximum I could in an ISA, pay off some debt, go to Malta for 2 weeks and then go back to work as normal.

[Chillitt]

Theoretically, can't say thank you as it's in a will, and theoretically, no debts to pay.. And you are right it's not life changing ammounts, but enough for some fun...

After I've said thanks and had a beer, it's got to be a trip to Frogs Island and say - I'd like an LC80 please, that will go anywhere, here's £10K - see you in a month!
