When I win the lottery, I will treat myself to a dream holiday [US: vacation] and I'll invite my best friends. I'll rent an immense villa in the Bahamas where we'll each have our own room. On-site, I'll hire a chef who will take care of all our meals. The villa will only be a few steps away from the beach. We'll have a good time together: We'll swim in the turquoise ocean, we'll go big-game fishing, and we'll chat until dawn. Now, I need a lottery ticket!
