Gave the guy at the car wash a larger than usual tip since it was Easter hols and all. He was really pleased by this gesture and it made me happy to see.


Bumped into him walking out of the bookies a few days later, he insisted on giving me some of his winnings and wouldn't take no for an answer. ?500 quid, that will do very nicely, sir.

The principal of what you give out you get back is broadly true. But if you give but don't expect to receive then you'll seldom be disappointed. And you'll have made the world a slightly better place.

    • Though it's often the big corporates who dig deepest. For small independents that's a bigger ask, decorating, when they do their own premises is cost enough. And we're normally happy not to have the big corporates in LL. 
    • If this is you or you know of them, please send me a private message. They're likely to live on Crystal Palace Road. Thanks.
    • In my experience there is no fool proof solution to this with any company. Delivery drivers are people and people will make mistakes, cut corners, mis-understand instructions or simply not read them.  I've left instructions for parcels with just about every single company out there and at some point they've all screwed up.  I think the security camera is the best deterrent for thieves. In this case, my ring door bell spooked them off. I've just installed warning signs at my safe space to make it even clearer that they're being recorded. In the case that mistakes do still happen by the couriers, at least I know about it on the camera and can try to alert a neighbour if I'm not home.  Its sad that we have to turn our homes into fort knox with cameras but that's the world we live in.
