Thank yous are a pet peeve of mine. I once hosted two girls for ten days–whizzing them all aorund the countryside in a fantastic holiday tour. I got a joint thank you which read–“Thank for letting us stay with you!!! Love, X and Z” Grrrrrr. What unappreciative girls.

For money, you can politely refer to it as the ‘gift’. kristin has the right idea–with six lines and some bits of personal information.
