Vanguard Bond Index Fund Inc Long-Term Bond (BLV)

I'm looking at this animal

Vanguard Bond Index Fund Inc Long-Term Bond (BLV)

to hide away a lump of my SIPP while the storms rage. Anyone any thoughts on why this might not be a good place to hide and perhaps think the Vanguard Lifestyle 20% might be better?

I just having moved my funds from PPs to SIPP don't fancy equities at the mo. :beer:
I believe past performance is a good guide to future performance :beer:

    I'm trying to decide what LifeStyle fund to go with. Should really be doing 80% (I'm almost 28 y/o) but (and I KNOW you're not meant to time the markets) I think the ones heavier in bonds are and will perform better for a year or two yet.
