where do i go and what do i do, do i go to some country and get a temp job or what.
i have no skills and cant speak any other languages.
life is boring for me at the mo, and that needs to change come newyear.

You're over selling yourself. China is a worthy suggestion, though mostly cold at the moment. I'd come to Thailand or elsewhere in SE Asia - you could have a nice time with that money for a few months.
Do you have a degree? If so, teaching English in Asia is fun. I'm doing that at the moment.
If you are under 30 then the working holiday schemes in Australia and New Zealand are a possibility. I had a good time in Australia and a pretty dull year in NZ, but many people love NZ too.
Don't think too hard about it. Just see where you can get a cheap flight to and go. Most of the world has it's good and bad points but often a change of scenery is a worthwhile thing in it's own right.

I'd agree 100% with this. You have time and money....jsut get on a flight somewhere, and see what happens. Worst case scenario, you'll have a great holiday!(Visa)You just leave and go back in again.
Also try Hongkong and Taiwan for English teaching.
Lots of people teaching there without degrees.
With a bit of luck the school will also get you a work permit.
Film extra work also available in Hongkong. Will pay some of the rent.
If I was in your situation I'd just get on a plane and go. Leave most of your money back home and use a debit card to draw on it.
Study the Lonely Planet guides and join some online backpackers forums.
It's a doddle really.
