Spending...

If somebody gave you £1,000 with instructions to buy yourself something nice.

What would you treat yourself to?

I would like a hot air balloon ride - some muck boots - a Radley handbag - an electrified treadmill....

I think that would about do it.

Re: Spending...

Oooh! I would like a hot air balloon ride too! I would buy nice things for the house, I think. Spending so much time here has made me buy daft things like cushions, new curtains etc, so I think I would decorate. Ever so practical

I'd wait to book a nice holiday in a beautiful manor in it's own grounds with log fires and beautiful food .

A new TV for the lounge, although the one I'd really like would go over the amount of the gift.

To buy myself something nice.

I’m with Meg on this one, but, mine would be, to have some sort of design on my decking, as in plants, seating ,etc, I would love a greenhouse, but haven’t room for one.

The finest steaks, the finest wines and champagne to be shared with someone.
