When I got back to my car after some last minute shopping I found an envelope under my wiper. In it was a lovely card with a monetary gift inside. I was very humbled by the kind person who made this who had done this and wished I could have thanked him/her in person. I have the gift still and would now like to pass it on in the spirit of which it was given to me. I will donate it to the Australian bush fire fund. If the person who made my Christmas so special is reading this please accept my grateful thanks. May your New Year be full of happiness and good health.

The jobs I have requested quotations for have been usually smaller jobs. It is well known between tradies that if they don't want the job they will quote an exorbitant price, hoping that the person they are providing the quotation for, won't accept their quote. What is wrong with being more direct and saying "Sorry, I don't want to quote for your job as I'm too busy" instead of hiking up their price????
