And I think there's an element here where, you know, religion...

replaces ritual, but ritual has predated religion.

Like there are rituals in people's lives that people like to mark.

And the way we have done that here is through the Catholic religion.

But what this shows is that when there are other options, people are more likely to suit themselves and to suit what they want to do as long as they can still do the ritual.

Whatever people want to do on the day they're getting married, Matt, is absolutely fine.

And bringing a lot of joy to everybody's life as a father of a young child who likes to go to restaurants, lightening the mood for the entire restaurant, I think is what you mean to say.

And you get to feel like a horrible person as you stare them in the eye and say, no tip and move on.

But absolutely, I don't think we should let that level of tipping culture come in because what happens in the United States is that it's not on top of, it's instead of.

So the employer pays less because there's an expectation that the tip will be there.

So it's the employer who gets the saving and it's not an additional for the person working there.

There's an example here in the Gordon Ramsay story of a string of bars in Scotland who did an automatic 2% tip on

every pint that you bought that it was just baked in.

I mean, that's no longer really a service charge because you're going up for yourself.

That's just a price increase.

That's just a price increase dressed up as something else.

So I think, I mean, people should absolutely tip, but the cultural norm here and around of the 12%, unless it's exceptional, in which then you can decide yourself to go up, is where it should be.

It goes without saying that my child is perfect and I would never do such a thing because she is very, very well behaved and great at everything that she does.

Look, I think actually kids do need to be allowed in adult spaces, obviously to a degree.

Kids need to be around life.
