Part of the same (Clarks) family Mike. Had a bust up, so the splinter group (Victoria pies) couldn't use the clarks name.

Re: CASH IS KING !!!!!! Confirmed
Walking round with 2lbs of shrapnel in your pockets is great fun. If you like cash, then use cash. But why make an argument out of it? Weird.

Re: CASH IS KING !!!!!! Confirmed
I rarely take cash out, having a bulgy wallet in the same pocket as my keys after not carrying one the majority of the time just feels like an inconvenience now. I had 2 sets of keys and my car keys on me yesterday and decided to take my wallet with me as id been paid back cash by one of my mates (that I transferred to) and the wallet is one of them small ones that's basically a card holder with a money clip and an apple Airtag on it.. and it just annoyed me all day. Was handy at 23.40 to get grub from the kebab shop..
I worked a bar 20 years ago, was east to work out the drinks and stuff and id have it sorted in my head as I poured the order, but even then shit tills back then had the prices on and gave you the change due once you'd bashed it all in, also like to add it was easier to get change from the bank than it was 5 pound notes, so all the old fellas standing there with their £10.60 to get a fiver change weren't always doing the place a favour, as when you ran out of fivers you'd have to use the change anyway (where I worked and many other pubs in the area said the same)

Re: CASH IS KING !!!!!! Confirmed
I agree. I think you have to be a real baboon to assume only digital and plastic is the way to survive.
Several cards, a few K of cash with a stash of gold sovereigns in the house, some gold and silver bullion offshore should see you well. These systems will fail and with energy blackout / brown outs increasingly likely you need it.
I am not in the baboon camp on this one. Leave the baboons to 100% trust governments.

I've got a few mates with them key safe boxes. Was in absolute hysterics one night watching one of them try to get in, I'd seen him failing to walk home and basically spun the van around early hours on a Sunday morning after I'd gotten an early dart from work..so I gave him a lift to his house (in the right direction) I stopped in the street and stayed sat in the van to make sure he got in alright, he stood there for 5 minutes repeating the code over and over looking bemused as to why it wasn't working, I eventually got out and tried and also failed but he's shouting this pin out rather loud as he thinks hrs whispering to me, after a while I put him back in the van and dropped him to his parents house 10 mins away.
Why anyone wouldn't carry a key is beyond me. My other mate who has one of them boxes has had to climb in through an open window multiple times after forgetting his code. It's the same as his PIN code on his phone, which he manages to unlock to phone multiple people to day he is locked out and can't get in, neighbours love him.

Re: CASH IS KING !!!!!! Confirmed
Cash is incredibly important. How we pay for things isnt as important as the air we breathe or food we eat, but it isn't far behind. The idea of placing that entire system in the hands of financial corporations is very very unwise. Card companies take a cut of each transaction typically. That 10p change you used to give to the homeless outside, you now give to a global banking giant. And it doesn't always work, and it's harder to track spending on it in many respects. I genuinely think it's contributed to inflation to some extent.
Progess? Not at all.
It's also critical for many disabled, poorer people and people like women in controlling relationships, escaping abusive partners etc.
It's all built on an infrastructure too, that needs maintaining. It's a small act, but genuinely a good one to withdraw some money and spend it. Keep the balance, etc.
