  • Nowt for me yet again, so I've decided to withdraw all but 1K today. :(

    Time for a change, and hopefully a change of fortune. :)

    August figures are out today - they weren't there yesterday when I looked in the afternoon....are you sure you checked the correct month?
    Anyway - 2x £25 for me again!
    Withdrawing and then repurchasing seems to stimulate wins if you have a barren spell - don't ask me why, but it works.
  • £25 for husband :)

    I have just realised something about my premium bonds (After not winning a bean this month)

    To enter into the premium bonds, I am paying about £1000 a year...

    !!!!!!, I must be really stupid.

    Yes, but paying £1000 to enter a competition/lottery a year.. Must be mad!

    It is like buying nearly £100 of lottery tickets a month..
