    Only £25 this month on around £30k. Was hoping Santa would be kind to me this month too. :o(
    The bigger the bargain, the better I feel.

    I should mention that there's only one of me, don't confuse me with others of the same name.

    7 months in a row with nothing on 15k. Very much at the bad luck end of the scale!

    Just £50 this year. But on the other hand this is more than I have ever had since having some bonds since 1958!

    £25 on 50k this month.

    £650 for the year for me on 50K holding, so total works out at 1.3% this year which is 'ok' bearing in mind current rates.

    Finished the year with 3 x £25, making it my best year yet with a total of £1,225 equating to 2.45% and no months without a win. £650 in January had a lot to do with that!

    My previous 2 years with the max holding saw returns of £400 (10 winning months) and £800 (11). I reckon I'm odds on to experience regression to the mean in 2020!
