Hello SPCers! I hope you've had a good week, now enjoy the weekend.

To all those of you who are poorly or low in any way, take very great care and get well soon. Very best wishes from us all here on SPC

Excellent ways of saving MrsShazbat!! Fingers crossed it all works out for you just as you'd wish.

Hello again october82 excellent saving for you, not too bad either given we're over mid way into January!!

That's fine Hetty, as I wrote in the first post of page 1, we all need to save in the best way we can given the cost of living crisis. So, good for you. BTW I too was very envious of Ant. 🤢

Good to see you back LMD, I hope you had a lovely time.

Brilliant potting!!

Hi madlyn, very well done with your money from a vinted sale! 😀

Oh Siju, so very many congratulations on the birth of your darling treasure, Beatrice!! 💖 Wonderful news and congratulations to your daughter and her family. What a lark with the hospital getting her weight so very wrong, but an excellent 6lb 15  oz's! Indeed. 💞 I wonder with many hospitals getting things so wrong these days if others over compensate perhaps. Anyway, thank goodness all is perfectly well.

Very happy grandparents for sure!😀😀 

We've yet another on the way in March, a sister to Tallulah who had so many problems with fluid keep going into her lungs at Bristol Childrens Hospital. The Paediatrician has said she doesn't need to see her anymore, but she still has a shocking cough,  but her 4yr old brother, Sonny is soon over to comfort her, yet he's a little terror and the other day squeezed a bottle of tomato sauce from his bedroom window saying "weeee...plop!" litte s..!

Well done with your potting, as well as the 1p!

TAKE VERY GREAT CARE EVERYONE especially with the cold coming towars the latter part of the weekend

Declaration Day for SPC 0025 is October 23rd.............BEFORE --- BUT NO LATER, please!

@siju my supervisor had a baby boy last Wednesday.  She had to have growth scans too; he weighed in at 7lbs 5 oz 🤦‍♀️. Congratulations on the arrival of Beatrice ❤️

Congrats to you and the family @siju

£79.74 into the Plum pot this month and £2.68 from the weekly purse-change clear-out.  Surprisingly given that it was Xmas and a long month, my account has been pleasantly healthy hence the amount saved by Plum.  Got a handful of birthdays before the end of February, and then nothing on in March so hoping to hang on to as much as possible before April and the Edinburgh trip.

Congratulations to your Supervisor and family too Hetty. It does seem as though Maternity clinics/hospitals maybe over compensating because of others sometimes having made errors. The hospital our younger granddaughter goes to hasn't a great track record, our elder granddaughter has 3 little treasures but says she would never have anymore due to them.

Our neighbour's daughter had their last son at Bristol due to them saying all sorts about his weight and the fact that their maybe something wrong with him. Freddie was just over 7lb and perfectly ok. So far our younger granddaughter has been ok with the same local hospital, I hope it stays that way!

Brilliant saving with Plum MrsShazbat with what goes in the pot too! 

We're the same as you with quite a few birthdays next month, but they're 2 in March, including our son's as well as mine so not too bad!

Excellent potting again LMD! 😀

Congratulations @siju

A little quiet on the potting over here (payday on Friday will hopefully change that!), but a sweep of the accounts gave me £1.58! Better than nothing.

Thanks for your congratulations everyone 🥰 I've been speaking to other grandparents who have similar experiences with growth issues identified by scans but all the babies have been absolutely fine. Unfortunately, I think the medical profession is so worried about getting it wrong, they are over compensating and covering their backs. I understand, but the stress and worry they cause is not acceptable. 
Another week, another fiver and a bit of small change. Stay safe and well xxx

Hi there, if possible I would love to join this challenge as well.  I've read the rules at least 3 times, I have the money tin and already started depositing some coppers in. I don't have money goals with this one. I've put reminders on for October 23rd already, not a day I will forget as its a birthday of a friend. 

My signature is not functioning for now since I'm a newbie but I'm also in the 1p challenge so will be active monthly and I stay chronically at screens due to being in education. Look forward to the challenge!

I guess my number will be --- judging from the list on the first page? I will make sure to bold and line underneath my responses with my number and username going forward.
