 Broke the £300 mark today also had 2 boxes of chocs and half a dozen bottles of booze of 1 type or another.
 My round is 95% domestic though which helps

Finally had a bottle of wine today!
Only had a fiver other than that, as I was in an area where I know they won't tip.
They're underpriced too!

I seem to be lagging well behind but the next few days should be better.
I'm up to £24 and a bottle of wine.  I don't even drink.  My accountant puts £50 on my accounts for tips anyway.  I'll make sure he knows about it if I get less.  I don't mind paying tax on money I've had but not on money that I haven't had.

  I got a tip on Monday that was huge, I won't say how much or who from, but will say it was well into 3 figures, they pay by bacs through their business but gave me the tip in cash.

  It's going to be a good fortnight off now!

Well it would cost me about £14 really (28% of the £50)   ;D
I wouldn't sack him.  He's been with me longer than any of my customers  :)  .

Had a Christmas card today with a tenner in it. "Happy Christmas Dai from all at number one"!.
I have to go through my round now and try and figure out who it's from, I must have 8 number 1's.
