Premium Bond Winner ?

I had a rather surprising shock this month with 2 bond wins. One at £10,000 & the other at £50. I still can' quite believe it & at first I thought it was a £1k win instead of £10k. This is on a holding of around £45k.
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.18 -
