Just hold on there a second...............................

Standard Life floated earlier this year at 230 (IIRC) with a discounted buy option (218?) if you decided to exercise it. They're currently listed at 284, which is a gain of nearly 24%, and if you hold them for 12months you get another 5% issued free.

Could make a nice gain after 12 months, but there again things go down as well as up.

I'm holding mine.

(Oooer Matron :oops: )

you sound like a gambling man, why not sell, and get some premium bonds ?
its like a gamble, but without losing anything.
tax free too :)
