So she didn’t really tip him at all. He was generous and gave her a discount for traffic that wasn’t his fault at all, and she gave it back to him. So basically he was just paid the correct fare given the situation with the traffic in London at the time. And THAT made her feel “all festive and happy” !!Jesus, with the year taxi drivers in London have had and at Christmas, £7 for Vic, oh so generous.
Personally, I have been furloughed for most of this year so money is tight yet I am still making up a Christmas parcel for an elderly customer of mine that lives alone with no family, I donate money to charity every Christmas yet I don’t feel the need to plaster that all over my social media pages for attention like she does! Given what she earns and the freebies she receives she could have given him a genuine tip!
