    Our postman really is super- I've had recorded parcels for me arrive when nobody is home and he has actually taken them to my Dad's work to get a signature for them!:D
    Gave him £5 last year but this year have got him some wine (£4 instead of £8).
    I buy milk from sainsburys and don't give the binmen anything- never really occured to me. Not sure if we even have the same ones or if its different ones each week!

    Our postie is on a good one with his job. He pops back home for beakfast, then tea then lunch! We don't get our post till 1 or 2 on a normal day and it's only a village and thats his only round!

    No tip for him I am afraid. Only stop being a jobsworth and get on with it!

    We get our milk from the supermarket, the bin men are here at the crack of dawn and always insist on leaving empty bins at the front of the drive-way (sooo annoyingrolleyes.gif). Our postie is always moaning and complaining and very miserable. We'll be giving any money we would have given out to charity.
    Wins since 2009 = £17,600

    MANY THANKS TO ALL OPS
