several months ago I withdrew most of our combined PB holdings as interest rates improved.

I left a £1000 in each of my wife's accounts more to just "hold" the account not expecting to win anything on that.

I got an email this morning saying I'd won. So off I trotted to check expecting the usual £25.... to find I've won £500!

Wooty woot woot!

I left a £1000 in each of my wife's accounts...

bah! I meant each of mine and my wife's... in case that wasn't clear!

I still won £500 though!

Zero and £50 on two full holdings.

The May draw updated after midnight.

A record month for thebarns flock.

4 max holdings.

£200, £225, £300, £1,400 for a total of £2,125.

Reminds me of a previous bit of luck whilst working in a large office in the mid 90s. One guy was flogging raffle tickets and I managed to scoop the only prize of £1,000. The winner was determined by picking a grid number in which a cow would do its business in a gridded field !

[widowerandorphan4]

£125 + £200 from 2 full holdings

[the0ni0nking]

First zero in a while on full holding.

[swill453]

Another bad month: £150 on a full holding.

Not desperately bad really. At 3.6% p.a. it's only slightly below what you'd expect with average luck.

I'm not grumbling at £150 (100 and 50)! It continues my unbroken run of at least something every month so far this year.
