The last few days have been cleaning mainly at work I took on since early summer, so I would have been surprised if any tips were going.
Hopefully there will be a few over the next three weeks.

Very poor this year so far. I think it's Coz 30% of my customers are on go cardless.

Think I might take a £5 from each one.

"Description"

Christmas tip :D

HOWEVER!

I did get £20 out of the blue yesterday. Nice thank you card and £20 inside. Didn't expect it so was genuinely shocked.

Also had 12 home made mince pies. My dad counted them and said you have had one already. I was like no I haven't! So they must have made 12 then tested one lol  ;D
