Yesterday a client gave me 2 bottles of smirnoff ice,2 yorkie bars,a snickers and a mint chocolate areo!

was there a reason for this list of stuff or was he just getting rid of the xmas excess? 

I didn't post on this thread earlier because I've had just the two tips, on ?10 and one ?20. But yesterday my client said "there's a bit extra there"  and it was ?60 extra, for a one hour apt! I was a bit embarrassed by it tbh, but very grateful! I'm not going to expect them, never have, as like a few of you have said I think my fee is enough, but it has brightened up this cold miserable weather for me. 
I've been eyeing up a jacket in All Saints so I think I'll get it now!

I know. I was thinking maybe he owns an off licence or something.

Thanks...lets us know there's still some light at the end of the tunnel after the holidays

I got loads of dodgy wine over Christmas which me and a mate got completely mullered on (we decided to do it all in in a night).

I bet...shit, depending on the size of the bottle and especially with red wine....after half a bottle Im driving the porcelain bus

and often the trains only run once an hour or something so I end up staying an extra half hour, as id rather be inside than waiting in the cold!  A client today offered to pay for the extra half hour, but as it was my choice to stay I said no...im thinking I should have accepted it now though!

Personally, if it was me I'd be more worried about over-staying my welcome than to be giving the client an extra 30 minutes. But if they're ok with it, I wouldnt see it a big deal. I mean, you could just start advertiseing yourself for up to 90 minutes (up to you whether how much additional, if any) if you want to throw in an extra 30 minutes, instead of compromising yourself. I dont blame you, waiting on a train at late hour is nerve-wrecking (I did it a few times).

And yes you shoulda took the money! (but it was good integrity by the way)

My last tip was ?80, noticed when he gave me it that there was extra there but when i counted it after he left, it made me feel fabulous. Was given after the booking so obviously I was doing something right haha! Until he gave me a 5 on a/w FR personality sec; he does proclaim accident though.

I used to get trains and it was a bit of a pain, I once had an hour and 15 minute gap between getting to the station and the train home. I told the client beforehand and he said yep, I'll make sure you get it, he picked me up and dropped me off in plenty of time (in scotland though brrrr)

Not so long ago I did an outcall to Surrey, I don't normally travel as far as it was only an hour but he sounded nice. Complete cunt, obviously and me being me, I assumed there would be plenty of trains but no - once a bloody hour and I had to wait half an hour. Done it a couple of weeks beforehand, another Surrey booking (nice, pretty hot too) where I was busy gabbing and missed the train by literally two minutes and had a wander about a tiny village at 6pm for half an hour

In a mini dress none the less.
In November.

I hate the weather.

but (to put it bluntly) for me once the paid time is up, so is the sex. DOes that make sense?

It does to me...I never knew how long an hour actually was until I started doing this. so much for 'time flies when you're having fun'
