Just had a google of how much it would cost to make pins, and assuming they'll make about 1000 (selling them for £8 each) ? they could buy each pin for under 50p, thats a profit of £6.50 (with the £1 supposedly going to charity). That's a lot!!!
Anyone know how many pins they sold last time?


Do we know what they sold them for last time? £8 seems a lot for a pin?
 
Didn't they say it was a rainbow design and they'd made it before current circumstances so now it seems pretty timely. The pin market is huge online and £10 isn't too unreasonable for one, if you like the design.

Yeh well it was going to be £7 but now it's £8 so they can give £1 to Charidee. Don't think they're selling themselves short here.

It took a lot of begging to sell the last lot (they didn't exactly fly off the shelf) so it'll be interesting to see how this lot do. That trip to WDW (including forking out for a nanny) won't pay for itself.
 
That pity video is so annoying to watch, they are moaning that they don't have a nursery to put babies things in. This is exactly why you don't get pregnant without having your own home. I get they didn't anticipate the pandemic and it's affected their chances of renting now, but I don't understand how they can think they'll be buying a house in the future with neither of them being employed right now.
And I find it so odd that neither of them seem to be particularly upset that Daves family may not be able to meet the baby for a while after it's born.
 
So Daves got a job doing an audio play/musical wonder how much he’s getting for that. Doesn’t he really need a more stable job 😂
I’m not sure if something like that would even be paid work? What do we all think? Also will he be able to keep up with both when he goes back to doing night shifts imminently?

They had a home when they got pregnant. Sophie was working nearly full time and Dave I think had just finished in the west end. They made a conscious decision to pack it all in and move back in with Sophie’s mum. What I don’t understand is why they didn’t try and find somewhere to live BEFORE they moved out of Basingstoke whilst they were both earning etc. Sophie was going to her mums for her midwife appointments and scans etc so it’s not like she wasn’t around the area to go and view houses. I know that would of meant she was looking on her own but let’s be honest, I doubt she cares about what Dave thinks anyway.
 
No one on here has said that they should have bought a house before getting pregnant, but they should have a stable home of their own, and if that’s rented, then so be it. There is nothing wrong with renting, especially if Dave is still wanting to carry on acting, and could potentially be moving here there and everywhere following it.
But they have made there chances of buying so much harder, someone said earlier, Sophie lived at home when Dave was on tour, that was the perfect time to save for a deposit. But don’t forget, we’re talking about the girl that spent her student loan on a trip to Disney!

I don’t know if you are talking about what I said, but I even said the same she would spend it on Disney before she saved enough.

I was responding to Dave saying they’d love to buy in the video rather than replying to someone here.

Having watched that again it’s so sad when she says ‘something we can sell to get a house and buy stuff for our house’ and then Dave chips in ‘and Barney of course’ it’s like a complete afterthought.

Also she’s fine with constructive criticism, I don’t believe on most threads that it is constructive but I actually think this thread has quite a lot of things they could take on board and make their lives better.

I think the problem is they are going to always struggle to find somewhere to rent that meets all of their demands and allows a dog.
They have always said that they want to buy a house but have made no real attempts and now they are in the position that they probably won't be able to buy one for some time.
