    Last month £325, this month £250. Holding £45,000.

    Mister CJ has £50k in bonds but seldom wins more than me each month so it’s probably not worth me buying any more.

    2 x £50 on full so a bit below par

    My first ever win - £100 on a £580 holding! Very happy with that, I didn't expect to win anything with such a small holding.

    I've been just adding spare change (£30 or so) each month for the thrill as an alternative to throwing my money away with the lottery
    Congratulations, any win on a £580 holding is unusual. The equivalent percentage interest rate must be quite high.
