Horay!

I've just won £25

Guess I could treat myself and buy some 1911 credits. Shame I can only find a couple of mine. I guess the others are horribly mistranscribed (or possibly in hiding!)

Funnily enough, my Mums still got the £1 bond she bought for me when I was born in '64, the one she bought when she married and neither has paid out. I shoved some money in three years ago and so far have had £175 back ( 3x £50 and todays one).

First one bought 7 certificates, second went to a friend who run the marathon third went to British origins. Can you see a pattern?...............

Well done Janet. Don't spend it all in the one shop lol

Joan. I have one which was bought for me in 1959.
I went online and checked if there were any unclaimed prizes, and have contacted them.
I have had to write detailing when,where, and my address at the time of purchase.
Hey Janet, maybe I'll get £25 as well.
