So far this year I am up to 0.2% total return on my PB's so I have doubled bank base rate and 20 times the rate on a good many deposit accounts. Now that we have started a new tax year some of it will be shovelled off the share ISA fairly soon. Will it be "Sell in May and come back on St Leger day" again this year ?. (it was last year). April is a tricky month for investing. |

Had 15 of premium bonds for a birthday when I was about 10 years old. 63 years on and not a single win (and yes, they are "in the system", I just installed the App - it might bring me luck!!) |
