Donought. 
Which is doubly disappointing for me, I nearly always scoop the £6.20 prize, thus I hardly ever have to actually dip into my own pocket to buy a Euromillions ticket.

I think I would need time to think so I wouldn't make knee jerk reactions with what to do with it all. I knew of someone that won £7 million, last I heard there wasn't much left. Nothing new I guess.
I'm still pleased at having won £50 last week, not bad considering I almost never enter the lottery.

Properly independently wealthy, could easily live of interest, and happy buy flash items with interest alone.
I'd quit my current job, probably do some pro bono work instead, keep myself busy between holidays. I'd buy a few properties around the world, close to remote friends and family, and move around visiting them for a bit.
My stress levels would immediately drop to zero, even if work requested 6 months of notice, I think I'd do it happily

I'd tell them to stick it!
I won £6.80
Hah! I won £22.60! IN YOUR FACE!
Who wouldn't be? Buy a nice house for yourself and some 1 bedroom flats to rent out with the rest. It's not a 'millionaires' lifestyle but would make life very comfortable.
I'm holding out hope that it might be my work syndicate, however I get the impression that it's a paper ticket rather than one bought online (didn't see it mention explicitly either way).
I would have no difficulty spending 86 Mil, not to say I would blow it all, but there are plenty of things you can buy/invest in that command big big figures, islands, private aircraft, start any business you want, build pretty much any building you want. I would definitely have fun with quite a large amount of it, while keeping enough in the bank/safe investments to ensure I had a crazy income, around 1.2 mil after tax I reckon, give you 100k a month spending money.

87 mill.
£7m to family
£30m in my own charity I would set up. Go and build some schools in Africa and stuff.
£50m on fast cars, big boats and beautiful women who only want me for my money.
