    I've got just under £7000 holding, all purchased in the last 2 years, and have won £25 in April, May, August and September. Very happy with that.

    Nothing for us this month. Hubby won 2x £25 last month on a £4k holding.

    Imagine someone holding forth on biology whose only knowledge of the subject is the Book of British Birds, and you have a rough idea of what it feels like to read Richard Dawkins on theology: Terry Eagleton

    October smaller prizers are up.

    5 X £25 for me, which is the best result since holding.

    Good luck!

    I got £25 on my 15k holding. Better than nothing I suppose. Funnily enough it was off the latest batch on numbers I bought.

    Hmmmm...

    yes and for me !!! - ???

    anyway if you look at the big winners for Oct (ie £1,000 and over) I see that one winner of a £25,000 prize has £175 in total bond holdings and the value of the bond that won this dosh was £25 - with that bond being purchased as recently as 2010 June. Now how can that be when I thought there was a minimum purchase of £100 ??
