  • zero this month (had a run of those last year, hope it’s not starting again). However looking at the big winners it does seem as if the majority are with bonds bought recently, I.e. within the last five years. Do you think it’s because the random draw machine favours these numbers or simply that more bonds have been bought over that period?

    Because there's considerably more of them. A random draw machine does not favour anything.
