Sat in a well known opticians whose name begins with "S" yesterday waiting to be seen.A older gentleman pulled up outside on a mobiilty scooter He struggled to make his way to the counter on getting there he asked for olive oil for ears.Got out his money to pay only to be told he needed a card.Out he went without said olive oil. I do hope he managed to purchase it at the shop next door where he would have got it cheaper and they do take cash.Comes to something when cash of the realm cannot buy what you want.

Any shop that doesn’t take either cash or card in this day and age deserves to lose customers, just take both that way everyone is happy

Agreed, but at the same time who doesn't have a card nowadays? They are so easy to get.

This is the thing. How many people are trying to pay cash in Specsavers. Do you really want all the hassle of training staff in how to do the daily banking, and having someone have to actually do it, when you probably go days or even weeks without anyone paying in cash.

We have fallen so far since the days when anyone with a Saturday job in the market was expected to take cash, get the change right and all in £sd.

Bugger. If I can’t pay my builder in cash he will charge me VAT and have to declare everything to HMRC.
What’s the world coming to when they crush the black market.

Behaviour of other people on public transport is a well-worn topic in this thread by now, but: People who spread their belongings all over the table on a train. Absolute psychopaths

People who drive and struggle to keep on their side of the road
Bit of a generalisation but usually women with oversized cars that they can’t properly control
Cutting corners too tight when turning right almost taking the front end off any car approaching the junction
Cyclists with the same behaviour putting themselves at risk

Yep hate this. there’s a notoriously tight street near me yet everyone in their big Suv’s they can’t drive feels the need to go down them

I live near two schools. The number of parents (majority BMW, Audi, SUV drivers) who are all over the road and having near misses is astonishing. The speed they drive up my road, which is a 20 limit, is insane. You'd think people on the school run would give a shit about safe driving.

Omg this sends me to the fucking moon and seems to have become 1000x worse over the last few years, I now approach T junctions really gingerly because of the amount of times someone has turned right from the main road at 50mph and cut across my lane

all SUVs, pseudo 4x4s, whatever tf they're called.

"I've got a kid(s) so I need one!"

WHY!

small boot, harder for kids to get in and out of, more likely to kill a kid if you hit them. It's just an avg. size saloon with big wheels. F*ck off. Get in the f*cking sea.
