Thought that the bank investigate anything like that before it’s re payed due to money laundering rules ? Especially with 20k   , hope it wasn’t from a relative in some African country scam type of thing ?.

Got a carton of 48 mini packs of Border biscuits from a small commercial job. A mix of chocolate chip cookies, butterscotch crunch, Viennese whirls and golden oat crumbles.

Got a fiver from a regular crusty.

On £25 so far.

I'm doing ok ish. Quite a few dead certs haven't tipped. I've had about 30% of last years total so far. I don't think I'm going to reach it this year.
We look at them, they look through them.

Lots of customers haven't tipped that have done for many years which is understandable due to the ridiculous cost of living I reckon...

Then I'm getting tips off other customers that don't usually!

I tipped my postman a tenner yesterday.ive known him since I was a kid.🙂
