Rugeley Villa Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 (edited) If I won a million I'd buy us a nice house that is big enough for the 5 of us. Nowt too fancy, but enough room for us because at the moment our house is too small and will be even smaller once kids start growing up. So let's say a 5 bed up etchinghill for 400k. I'd buy our council house for 50k for future investment to rent out and I'd buy my mums council flat for her and again for future investment when she's gone. So that's 400k+50k+20k and then say 30k for decorating and bits and pieces. I'd put 100k in each of the kids bank accounts then give my mum 100k so she could take it a bit more easier and possibly retire earlier than planned. That leaves a spare 100k which would be put up for my retirement fund. Would definitely have a nice holiday out of the money first though. My grandad wouldn't accept any money and to be honest he don't need the money anyway as he's alright for a few quid. Yeah that's what I think I'd do.

I've always told myself I should pop up more because he's such a fantastic bloke, a great bloke, truly great, one of the best I remember thinking just the other day, "Out of all the Villa Talkers, who's wife has the nicest granddad, if I had to rank them." but it was no contest to be honest Ruge, it's obviously your wife's granddad.

She don't normally like spending money when she goes away and when they have been having meals she has just been having soup. She's been moaning like hell since they have been there about the price of this and that, so hopefully she might loosen up a bit now as it's been getting the rest of them down. This is the woman that had 20k in PPI claims about two year ago and still was pleading poverty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only if travelling outside of Europe so you'll be fine but in case you have any doubt , The FCO is your friend Quote Passport validity Your passport should be valid for the proposed duration of your stay; you don’t need any additional period of validity on your passport beyond this.

I think the U.S. requires that your passport have 3 months left beyond your visit, in case they need you back for a waterboarding after you've left. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
