He spent two thirds of his winnings on a baronial Highland castle.
He spent two thirds of what he had left on a luxury yacht so he could take the family on a tour of the Scottish Islands and sea lochs.
Then he spent two thirds of what he had left on funding a scientific expedition to locate the Loch Ness Monster.
He spent his final £20,000 on treating Maw Broon to a week at Skibo Castle.

Well done Thomas – 10 points to you! How did you go about solving this problem? Can you explain your strategy?
each answer is a third so times it by three to get the whole amount each time.
