    £125 on a full holding (2 x £50 and £25). After three blank months in a row I'm happy with a win, though disappointed with the amount. Rolling 12-month total is £1250 or 2.5% return. Return rate for me has fallen steadily over the last few draws. Will give it a few more months to see if my luck improves.   

    OH also bagged £125 on his FH (£100 and £25).

    Previously I had never won a prize over £100, so with around £31K in bonds I was happy with my £1,050 this month (2 prizes £50 & £1,000). Just checked back & only received £650 for the whole of 2025. As a bonus the £1K win was from a reinvested £100 win back in 2024.

    £100 this time on £50k holding. In contrast, I played two lines of lotto the other week (£6) and won 2 lucky dips and £10. And then my lucky dips won me another £30!! So I cashed both of those out, very pleased with the rate of return 😄

    2 x £25 for me and £25 for OH on FH. Won't let it change our lives too much.  I had 3 Eurolottery wins in December on successive draws - £9.60 total. We're living the high life here.....

    £25 on £45,430. The last six months have been horrendous. Once I reach the £50k limit (end of July) I’ll finally think about investing elsewhere. The dreamy millionaire in me won’t last any longer than that!
