With 66 million pounds...

I'd make sure the ol' family were looked after and had nice places to stay etc, then buy treats for all the people I like, give a shit load to charity, then finally sort out what I want and need to make life as hunky dory as possible.

comfort for myself and my loved ones, then build a studio in my new massive house and record my debut solo album. i've got it pretty much planned out in my head, so all i need to do is write some songs and i'm there!

all my posse would be getting pretty well looked after too. presents galore!

Bung the lot in a high interest account.
Make sure my nearest and dearest are comfortable, buy some things to make my life a bit easier (eg- a car so Stagecoach need never fleece me again!), tidy the flat up a bit.
I'd give a bit to charity, but only the ones that didn't solicit aggressively for support. I've been on the receiving end of some of the most sickening attempts to get me to donate already, and I'm only a skint student!
I'd quit my job so I could focus all my efforts on fourth year of uni.

If I ever found myself with a truly stupid amount of money, I'd try and take over all the rail providers and merge them all together. I almost at the point of believing that any average member of the public could do a better job than the companies operating right now.

pay off the mortgage, quit uni and move the hell out of this shithole country to paris where i'd be healthier and happier. and i'd pay to fly chris back here for band practice so he could move to paris with me.

Liposuction... and get all that crap done to my legs that needs to be done (bad veins). Get hairdressers to always do my hair - I'd employ someone.

High interest account for most of it

Give my boyfriend loads of it, he's always stressing about money and it means he could do whatever he wanted without ever having to worry about deadlines.

Makes sure all my friends and loved ones are sorted.

Buy an artsy pad and play with cameras and paint all day... learn to drive and probably start a little dress shop with good clothes in it - aberdeen needs it! I'd get original young designers to design and make one off's to order as well as seasonal designs.

and a dog! Ooooh, either a beagle or a huskie! So cute.

I'd zoom around in a purple mini and I'd get a pink scooter for nipping to the shops.

I think I'd also want a flat in London and Glasgow.

Buy a scary old manor house overlooking the city with an enormous cave underneath it, misappropriate some expensive body armour and a flashy vehicle and...well, you see where I'm going with this.
