    Aw thank you Sue-UU, yes Barnaby is the eldest at 3 and Beatrice is 7 weeks, so it was a very busy household. Plus we had the 2 dogs. Peace and quiet has descended on our little cottage again and we are catching up on some sleep 😴

    Potted some small change. Enjoy the weekend 😊

    Hello Potters! I hope you've had a good week, now enjoy what's left of 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  <3

    Very well done Vicky! Another £4 potted

    Thanks Siju, I thought Barnaby must be one of your grandchildren, I remembered Beatrice, only 3 or 4 weeks old I'd imagine. Plus the 2 dogs, it must have been a very busy time for you. Still, as you say you have peace and quiet once again. It really is a true old saying that they're a pleasure to have, but having got used to the peace when the nest has been emptied, it's almost a pleasure to have that peace again, sleep 😴 too!
    Good for you with the extra change in your pot. Enjoy what's left of the weekend. 😊

    Morning, having had a difficult two weeks I'm in better state now.👌Organised a litter pick last week with my neighbours and got some shiny finds to pot away.

    Happy belated birthday to all who celebrated and those who have an upcoming one
     I have so many people in my life born this month. 😊

    Very appreciative of our pay rise which appeared today :smile:

    Also something weird happened in that I had significant - for me - money left in both my regular bank accounts.  Immediately suspicious that something hasn't been paid, but I think I'm OK :lol:

    Anyhoo, £36.86 has gone into my Plum 'pot' this week. I've also put the surplus that was left over before payday, into my Nationwide savings account to hopefully meet the criteria for the Fairer Share if it happens.

    Hello Potters! I hope you've had a lovely weekend, now enjoy the week ahead.

    Very well done Vicky! Another £4 potted

    Very well done jakes-mum!

    Well done LMD, plus the £75!!

    You do fairly well with Vinted madlyn. Very well done!

    I'm glad all's well with you now BeyondDirect98. It was my birthday on the 5th so many thanks to you.
    Very well done with your shiny finds while litter picking! I've never seen the verges of our A & B roads in such a state with litter as I've done over at least the last 2 to 3 years, it's an utter disgrace the way so many folk simply discard their rubbish!! 😡

    A brilliant pay rise MrsShazbat!!
    Also very well done with your Plum in your account!!
    Sue


    Have a lovely week ahead, everyone. Look forward to a warmer week!

    DH walked past me last night and his pocket was jingling! :open_mouth: Cheeky begger was holding out on me so I shook him down and came away with a fist full of silver and gold coins for the tin.
