What a lovely dream .....

.... I had the other night.  I dreamt that we won the lottery.  £750,000!  It would have been higher, except we were sharing this win with two other people.  But I was very happy anyway.

Then the lottery organisers rang and said "whoops, we made a mistake.  You're not sharing this, so you've actually won £3 million."  Well, if I was happy before, imagine how I felt now.

Then the phone rang again.  It was the same lady from the lottery organisers.  "whoops, we made another mistake.  It was a rollover, so you've won £7 million."  Now can you imagine how I felt after that?

Fast forward a couple of days (in my dream that is).  We were introduced to personal stylists, hair and make-up people, etc, who going to do our makeovers and we would then be on TV receiving our cheque.  The venue for this was a wonderful hotel near us, and we were going to be taken there by helicopter.  (Really, we could have walked there, it's less than a mile away.)  There was going to be a big champagne reception afterwards for all our family and friends, paid for by the lottery people again.  You were all invited, and the hotel was going to pay your fares.  Ohh, it was all so exciting. 

We arrived at the hotel and were introduced to our personal investment advisor, who asked us what we were going to spend the money on.  Well, of course, I had spent a couple of days thinking about this, so I had a lot of ideas.  I took a deep breath to start to tell him, and.....

Mr Fixit decided to get up, and that woke me up. 

Anyone who knows us well will know that I am very good at spending money, whereas Mr Fixit is very good at saving, so it has caused much hilarity in the family when they realised that he even managed to stop me spending in my dreams.

Life's just not fair sometimes, is it?

There's still time to enter my giveaway by the way.  All you need to do is go here and leave a comment.

PS Tonight's lottery draw is a triple rollover, so the jackpot is £18 million, and yes, I've bought an extra ticket.
