best day today.    tips very much apreciated.
biggest tip today £20.     my eyes nearly poped out of my head.    this time of year just shows how much apreciated we are to our loyal customers.     im even happy getting a £1 tip.       money is tight for some.    so humbled.

i must be doing a good job ::)roll ;D this makes it all worth it.

the same as asian taxi drivers,     no one knows exactly how much you make,   only what you tell them.
why would you want to give your tips to the tax man.

just take it out as another expense if you get it in the bank.
buy a new pole. ;D ;D

Very very very poor this year. Tbh I am just happy that the business has grown and not shrunk. Even some "guaranteed" tips haven't happened.

Stand at about £20 and some wine.

But tbh if I get £30 it's £30 for nothing.
