    £75 on FH (£25 + £50).

    That brings total over past year to £1625 or 3.25% return. 

    OH also has FH but £0 for him this month.

    Just checked ours for September - pleasantly surprised to see £1200 winnings on our full holdings. However ,suspect the laws of luck will dictate little or nothing for the next three months !

    £25 for me on about £4.5k. I took £4k out last month so I'm happy with the little win.  Rolling 12 months puts me at £375 winnings, a return of around 5%

  • £25 on a £20k holding. Approx 2% rate of return over the last year.  I cheered myself up by checking my stocks and shares ISA which has seen a return of over 30% over the last 2 years.
