    I’m the opposite. I always carry cash on me. Then again I don’t live in London and my chances of encountering some knife wielding robber who’s twice the size of me is significantly reduced where I live.
    Cash is very handy in case of emergencies, such as when the payments systems crash in the supermarkets or wherever. All those shoppers who rely 100% on their cards having to abandon their purchases and make a mad dash to join the long queue at the nearest cash machine, hoping that it will still payout when it’s their turn.
    Cards are a necessary convenience, but think of the above scenario and try to have some cash handy for the unexpected. Just my penny’s worth.

    Most of the coins in use today are 30 years old or less and none pre-date 1971 so it's hardly a surprise that they need replacing less than say in the 1960s, when you often got copper coins (mostly well worn and flat) with Victoria and Edward VII on.

    I have been waiting for Charles III coins to come to me in change, but on this news, I decided to get a pair of definitive BU sets, just in case his coins never become common in change. Note: only the definitives though, I don't want any commemorative c**p.

    Picked this up earlier not because of the news but simply because the design is one of the best I’ve seen. Being silver it will take hundreds of years to be worth good money but the gold was a bit of a stretch!

    Picked up another plump sovereign. 2022 Piedfort Memorial Proof. The strike on the double thick planchet appears to give it a higher relief compared to a standard proof.

    A booklet from Baldwins. I've been managing with the online version for a while but it's always better having a paper copy in hand.

    2010 Gold Proof City of London £1 Coin   I much prefer the "raw" versions of the sensibly weighted gold £1 coins to the lifeless hygiene of the mortuary slabs and was pleased to pick up this splendid "London" specimen from the RM 2010/11 Capital Cities collection. Just three more replacements to source.   Still looking for the 2006 Egyptian Arch as well as the 2012, 2013 and 2015 (4th portrait) shields, should anybody be able to help.

    We are getting boiled on every level now, nobody seems to be bothered, noone seems to care.
    I feel like I'm a visitor now in the reality I used to enjoy in my 20s
    Keep me away from the ' general public' and newspapers, tv, radio, bookface, social media

    It makes me want to puke those HD self service touch screens…..if you are going to catch something it’s going to be from those things with the looks of those snotty degenerates all over them with their greasy paws. 

    Queue to use one of those a things then having to wait for your food like a 1980’s Argo holding pen……F that I go out in the car in the morning with a flask and a bag of sandwiches.  

    Fast food deliveries have you seen the state of the people who deliver…….a picture of health and the bag they deliver in is scummy beyond words……swab them and it’s a case of what you wouldn’t find…… “special sauce” anyone ?

    Rather than converting all to cashless.
    Start with the young ones. Look at fast food restaurants.
    Visited a taco bell a few weeks back 100% cashless inside All ordering via a screen and cashless payment. I also read some Asdas are trialing going cashless to 
    When all young un's have known is cashless, it is us dinosaur boomers using filthy cash who are odd soon enough in years to come
