Although I'm grateful for something (£25 on FH), it is starting to get annoying now as I know I could get much more in a savings account

After a poor 2024 with a FH, which included a statistically unlikely 4 consecutive blanks, and a sluggish start to 2025 patience has paid off with a very healthy win of £1300 this month - 2 x £50, 2 x £100 and 1 x £1000. Takes me pretty much back to the anticipated return rate for the 4 plus years that I have held the FH. I guess if you hold them long enough you do revert to the mean eventually.4
