Lady Luck smiles on some people! I'm not one for lotteries, most I ever won was $30.00; haven't bought a ticket in years..

Not sure if our Premium Bonds actually count as a lottery, dandysmom. You don't actually lose your money if you don't win the drawer, your numbers stay with you until you cash them in.

I wasn't especially thinking of your bonds, just that some people seem to be lucky at winning things ( any things) and some aren't. I can't even win one of our Quizzes...

Thanks Mags, have you won recently?
Not since last year Emma

That's a good idea about cashing in the old PB's and reinvesting........ it seems to be all my newish bonds that win, never the older ones

I reckon Ernie has chewed my older bonds up, it does seem strange that none of the old £1 bonds have never won!
