My wife has severe osteoporosis and movement limiting arthritis, so needs to be thoroughly warm around the house. 26c seems to suite her body, so that is the setting the heating runs at.

@OldGreyFox - Foxy, I think you are well overdue for a Bumper Win - 
fingers crossed for you next month.
I went through a very lean period when I wasn’t winning anything, or maybe a measly £25. That lasted for months, until December, when I had a bumper win.
Since then, I have been winning multiple prizes of £25, £50 or £100 each, totalling two to three hundred pounds each month.
I don’t expect this good fortune will continue every month - the Luck will shift to someone else - I hope it will shift to you soon.
Your turn will come soon!

Just £250 this month between us!
This is the start of a good month for me as I’ve a decent sum from the 1st day runnings. Now its time to surrender the lot and then ask for a reissue to be given new block of bond numbers 
I won’t ask many bonds you own.
I own the princely sum of …9.
My mum and dad bought them in 1962.
They’ve won small amounts twice.
Once around 1965
And last year! Whoopee … when I won 50 quid.
I know some people invest thousands in them.
You have to buy them in £50 blocks now Morty, I’ve got considerably more and made just over four grand in 8 years. You can only have £50,000’s worth of bonds per person. I don’t have the full amount allowed… 
£25 this month.
Have no idea how many bonds I own but tend to win most months, nice little boost to my pension.

Crikey … my puny £9 worth doesn’t stand a chance.
If you ever look at the winning tickets and when they were bought they all seem to be since 2020 … very rarely any longterm ticket holders.
I’m still Sitting under the Letterbox.
Waiting 4 The Sunderland One Arm Bandit.
To bless my Cotton Socks.
Worse Result to date @ 0.05% 
As he buys a Larger Letterbox 
My twelve month rolling average, pay out for 45,000 bonds, is too close to zero.
There have been a couple of announcements, telling us that there would be these cuts.
Add to that the fact that all those pounds, in there, are gradually being eroded away, as normal,
That leaves me comparing what I get, in interest, and after tax, in my Bank.
The Bank is well ahead, at the moment!
My friends say “Ah, but your money is safer in Premium bonds”!
But, Governents don’t tend to leave large pools of invested (with them) money alone, when the going is tough.
Surely this lot won’'t touch it?
(Ha Ha)

Nice to see you posting Ted, I’m up at the moment, I’ve had 30,000 in for 8 years and benefitted to the tune of 4,750 but I always buy more bonds with my winnings otherwise it just gets absorbed into the household bills…
