Yes it was frustrating but it could have been worse. And obviously was worse for a couple of families. :(

Indeed. A horrible thing to happen, especially at this time of year.

I know. Anything horrible happening at this time of year is so sad and the family will be reminded every year.

Just won £100. 🥳 A rather nice early Christmas surprise! 😀

Premium Bonds! Haven't had anything for years - so this was a nice surprise! :D

Brilliant. :D
I actually got £100 last month but it is very variable when I get wins. I always think that a premium bond win is nicer than just getting interest on savings even (or possibly because) it is unpredictable.

Just started reading The Satsuma Conplex by Bob Mortimer, and laughed at this quote, " I imagine the dogs are called Zac Briefcase and Lengthy Parsnips."

Why does Natasha Deckchair spring to mind? 🤣
