If I win, I'm not sure I'll go for the MacbookPro to be honest. I will definitely opt for the £1000.00 worth of John Lewis vouchers, as the laptop was reduced to £919.00 in the sales. I could spend the eighty quid on something else, but .... The Macbook has a smaller screen than my present laptop, my software would not work, my two external hard drives are for pc etc etc.

For that money you can do so much more. Maybe a proper DSLR? But I'm still not convinced it would work for me. So far a bridge suits me fine.

Another (non Apple) laptop? Put it towards the new kitchen I want, once my mother's house in Holland is sold? (That can take a while yet though.)

Go for a total wardrobe make-over? Furniture? Soft furnishings? Split it and treat hubby and Daughter to something nice, or rather give them their own vouchers?
You see that it becomes quite a problem! Aluxury problem, but a problem none the less.

Anyway, hope you enjoy the story and feel free to vote. Also feel free to share the link so others can enjoy my 'masterpiece' as well, and maybe vote too!

I agree Don. During my 'creative writing' period, which lasted five years, I've tried and tried, and never got anywhere and lo and behold, I take up photography and my writing takes off!
Photography must be my thing, as it makes other things fall into place too.
