    Two years? I've had one (yes one) since 1965 and never had a bean. Perhaps I should have more than one though ;)
    Can I help?

    Don't mean to make you all sick but I won £50K on them in 1992:D I was 17, it paid for 3 years at private university, 6 months travelling & the deposit on the house I still live in:D But I got rid of the PB's when I reached 18, I figured I'd had my luck:p
