I'm maybe misunderstanding your interpretation of a "tipped single" but I was thinking it was more to do with spoiling an untipped roll-up
Mind you, I've never smoked!

Tipped singles were exactly that - and were 3d, usually sold out a packet of Bristol. But it think it meant slevering over the end of any cigarette - plain, tipped or rolled - Brian?

From what I recall it was known as a "Cow's Lick" when sharing a cigarette with another and they left the end damp.

A Duck's A***, I think, was a hair style which resembled a 'V' shape on the back of the neck.
