In the end,...Thank you for your advice, everybody.<br /><br />In the end, I wimped out. I spoke to the head porter and got hold of the names of all the other porters. Turns out there are eight in total - plus the cleaners, groundsman and manager.<br /><br />So we wrote them individual Christmas cards and bought some very nice chocolates from Selfridges to be put behind the desk in the Porters' Lodge for everyone to share.<br /><br />Hopefully this was OK!Richard Brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14808940497740675782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7327817.post-28565203232932955292006-12-19T17:15:00.000+00:002006-12-19T17:15:00.000+00:00You could give cash together with something more p...You could give cash together with something more personal such as home baked cookies or deent shop bought ones. Another idea is to scrap the cash and give a small food hamper from an exclusive emporium to each recipient. If that is too expensive buy some small baskets from IKEA and fill with food items such as wine, decent smoked salmon, cheese, crackers and any other food items you may know will be appreciated by each individual.
