'I have £800 on me at the moment, which is actually a little less than I would carry normally. Usually I have a couple of thousand.
I carry the money because I’m a huge tipper. When I was younger, I struggled and ended up waiting tables, and I remember what it was like to be on that side of the business.
Whenever I go out, I tip generously. My average tip is always 35% to 40% of the bill. That usually works out at about £100.
If I park my car I usually tip about £50, not because I’m being flash but because I know that next time they’ll look after me. The largest tip I gave was £1,000 at the Waterside Inn at Bray in Berkshire.
The "Lonely Planet Guide to Sainsbury's'" page 37, shopping at the Sh*tfield branch on a Saturday afternoon.
"Crossing the Jordan", comedy by playwright Richard Murray. Late twist in the tail antagonising those convinced they would survive but who fell to Fortune.
Apologies AFKA, I've just amended one word.
