I think you see a trend here. Just sit tight and give notice after you have the bonus in your bank account. Until then slowly take personal effects and things you might want to save out of the office. BTW, those things like awards and plaques and whatever will mean nothing once you retire and get out of work mode. You only have something to lose by giving notice now, and so take advice of the rest and wait until early next year after bonus arrives.
