depends entirely what your risk profile is - are you willing to risk losing some of the money if it means potentially higher returns? or do you want to keep the capital safe and just make a reasonable amount of interest? Have you used your ISA allowance? If not it would be a good idea to invest the maximum allowed in an ISA for this year so the returns are tax free
I'd really recommend you go to see an independent financial adviser with this sort of money to invest. they can discuss your requirements in detail and arrange an investment portfolio for you to meet them

high interest bank account. shares have had an unprecedented 4 year run so dont invest there, and house prices are high too. a fixed term bank account is safest @ 6+%. If you were to buy property (nice idea, east london, 2012 olympics etc) and it was your second home, you'd have to pay capital gains tax on the profit. so that has to be worked into the equation

Check this list out for size: BVF, DHT, E, GMR, JRT, NZT, PCU, PDS, UL, WPZ. A fair mix of profitable companies that mostly pay pretty decent dividends.
