Little Timmy, fresh from Santa's coal mines where he was forced to do community service, wants to take a bath.

He needs 110 litres of piping hot Santa Water™ to fill said bath, and his bucket holds 10 litres.

Assuming he starts at the Santa Water™ distribution system (commonly know as a tap), and his loss rate from his bucket per trip amounts to 1 litre, how many trips does he need to make from the bath to the Santa Water™ distribution system?

This question is worth lots of points, but you have two minutes. No pressure.
