For example say you are the winner of the 61m Euromillions jackpot last Friday, would the opportunities in life and for new hinterlands that are unleashed by such a turn of events mean that either suddenly or more gradually, with intention or no initial planned intention -Do you reckon you'd end up moving on from watching and following TV soaps and participating in DS soap forums etc

Or do you think it will remain as much a part of your life as they are now?

No, I may spend more time on holiday and doing other things but I would catch up on EE when home. I'm not a major forum poster anyway so I doubt that would change

No love this Forum, would probably throw a huge party for everyone to come to with my money, only the best for you guys of course.

I'd be on holiday more often, of course, but I'd expect my mum to write me detailed episode summaries like this absolute star:

No. I'd use it to finally get Coronation Street released in full on a online streaming service or DVD as I've long moaned about not happening on here (rights to do so permitted).

I have said in the past that i would pay for it
Same goes for EE and also ED but i would only watch from 2000- onwards

Not entirely, but there's a lot of the world I'd like to see if I had the brass, so I'd be on here a hell of a lot less.

Haha. That's brilliant.

'Peggy's funeral- kept that episode'

I would have more time to spend on here as I wouldn't need to work. I'd also rely on here to keep me up to date as I would move to a sunnier climate. Is there a better place on the net for soap spoilers?

DS Enders would become DS Eldorado.

I'd still watch EE, but I'd be too busy wining and dining and holidaying with you to come onto the forum sorry peeps

Have you won Hilda?

I probably wouldn't come on as much as I'd like to do exploring and travelling.

for the first few years I would be busy following my dreams and so I wouldn't be soap watching as much and so would naturally come on less.

I only come on to keep my hands busy and away from snacking

Now that would be telling and I'd never tell or declare publicly if I'd won!

I've never tried any of them! A few more to go on the list!
The Scotsman hotel has a brilliant restaurant in Edinburgh if you've never been.

BIB I would hope not and you should be so lucky. I really didn't realise you were the jealous type

For a man who loves Scot's as much as you, you need to visit more often

How do you know that one or more posters haven't won?

How would I be able to see the TV when the room is full of hookers and drug paraphernalia?

I wouldn't. I'd move to Florida (if I could) and spend my time at the theme parks I'd also hire a private jet which could take to me to LA and the theme parks there
