£20, that was a single tip from an old couple - but they've just moved 100 miles away so I won't even get that next year!. The joys of delivering on a sh*tty estate.

So far nothing, expecting nothing, i have been a floater for the same 4 walks for a few years now, and in that time i have received nothing from the full-timers, i don't expect this year to be any different.

This thread reminds of those conversations about conquests of the fairer sexy oung lads have after a few jars. You're never sure who is exaggerating and always feel left out even when you are being honest. When, actually you've probably got more respect, and are more liked by the lads and lasses because you show them respect.

I don't know whether to give my floater anything yet. I know he's already had a couple of tips from people on my round and drinks. I also can't stand him as he's a snitch and has his nose right up managements posterior.

I never get many tips. This year I've had one £10, two £5 and three gifts. One of the £5 and the three gifts are from the same people every year - the other £5 and the £10 were an unexpected surprise :Very Happy
