    Good too see that some old UK institutions have not been messed with and still pay dividends!
    Good luck DW.. Hopefully you can update us with a serious win in monetary terms in not the distant future.

    My grandad used to win every month back when he had about 50,000 pounds worth of bonds.... However the most he ever won was £1000 in one hit... Guarantee at least 2 or 3 £25 or £50 ones a month though.... Sadly he retired a long time ago and cashed in most of his bonds. Don't think he has won anything for a few years now.

    Cheers Fred the buggers slashed the prize fund last year (http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/arti...ngs-rates.html) but I view it as there's always a chance of winning a big one. I love the trepidation as you rip the envelope open

    I think interest rates will eventually go up again as they usually do and then so will potential winnings.
    Good chance you will be laughing when that happens..
    More fun than an ISA that's for sure!

    I can't remember what the old max used to be, but I know my grandad used to pull a fast one and have them in his kids names too. That was his way of beating the rule. Of course, all the winnings went to him lol

    The most I ever won apart from betting on horses was playing online roulette some years ago. I won around £400 during a five day period. Before that I won a measly £104 by getting four numbers on the lotto way back in 1996 or somewhere around that time. I also won the bingo jackpot in a hotel in Benidorm much to the disgust of the pensioners.

    I won over $3000 at Black Jack first time in Las Vegas.
    As long as you keep playing these scantily clad ladies will continue plying you with free drinks.

    I remember waking up in the morning with a hangover, empty pockets and a missed helicopter trip to Grand Canyon.

    On the positive side I made the Grand Canyon trip the next day and really enjoyed it so much.

    I haven't played Black Jack since.
    Played roulette though

    Well done Dedworth, another case of premium beer on it's way no doubt
