Say you'd just won the lottery or inherited a million pounds from a rich aunt to spend on what you want.
What would you buy? Would you invest or just spend the money straight away? Would you still work in your current job/go to uni etc?
Of course, a million isn't as much as it was, would it be enough to realise your life's dream? Or perhaps you wouldn't want the money anyway?
I think the first thing I'd do would be to buy a bigger house. 3 bedrooms (well, 2 and a study room) is too small for us and as my daughters get older they'll want separate rooms. At the current rate it's probably half the money gone already.
We'd then take a proper holiday, as we haven't had a holiday that didn't involve visiting family and DIY since the year 2000. I might put a bit aside to develop my website further and the other site I write for too, to help them out.
Last, but not least, I'd ensure that some of our money went to help local charities or individuals that we know, but I'd need to find a way to do it anonymously.

Wait, it was upped to £10 million??!
In that case...
I'd buy a whole fleet of Lamborghini Countach, preferably Anniversary Edition (cos they're the prettiest) and I'd buy my wife a Mini (cos I'd never hear the last of it).
And with the £3 I'd have left over, I'd buy an ice cream...

You're very skilled at having £3 left over from any amount of money you are given >.<
What are you going to do with the other Lamborghinis? Look at them all because they are pretty?
