I would have thought comparing Borough bread with Hovis would have been a closer match Bob

Sep Looking forward to a cashless society and how YOU will cope if there's a cyber attack on the instututions that handle transactions and your ability to pay is compromised. Then cash will 100% be king. Far fetched? Maybe but possibly not impossible.

It's more about sending a message to their management. The shop floor workers would have to escalate it to their shift managers to deal with so they won't be directly impacted. After all you're not refusing to pay, just asking for cash to be used.

Maybe we should organise a cash campaign by all going in, ordering things then saying "I've only got cash on me" to see how they react. I wonder how they would deal with it if you had already eaten their products 🤔

What happened with your cheese comparisons ?

In the old days, the 12 used to run from Coulsdon to Notting Hill via East Dulwich, then the route was curtailed to Coulsdon then cut off from Notting hill so a total cut wouldn't surprise me

I'm looking forward to seeing what the blue mountain site offers when it reopens Boy they used to do a good breakfast back in the day when Mel first opened it

If you believe in privacy, then going cashless potentially means that a number of organisations, including your bank, will know every item you purchase and your lifestyle. Imagine a dystopia future (some would say we're there already) where every donut or pint of beer you purchase is shared with your health care insurance provider or the NHS and your lifestyle choices then effect the treatments you receive (extreme I know But who knew how much data facebook for example shared about us) Or if you regularly buy certain products, which are tracked by using your card rather than cash, how much more targeting marketing companies can aim at you. Cash really does allow you to have the illusion of controlling your data.

The problem is that for a business, it costs time (and money) to count up cash, cash can go missing and then the banks charge to deposit or withdraw cash whereas cardless makes it easier to manage hidden costs plus less chance of accepting a dodgy note. It's why buses went cashless However, it does stop you wandering out with a fiver in your pocket and getting an incidental coffee or cake as you pass so whilst I see why businesses do it, I do belive they turn many away who would have spent cash with them. Now I guess I need to put a for sale post up for near perfect ?20 printing plates🤔

Billy, it's not about the funding from central government but a managed decline in the number of buses in inner London so that he can provide more buses to outer London. The general managed decline you mentioned is about the whole of TfL and is a different strategy to get funding. This seems to be more about deployment of resources and potentially a carrot to encourage outer London car users to support an expanded ULEZ but the BBC london clip shows how so many are reliant on buses and reducing their service is going to impact them badly.

Rockets and Firstmate, Evaporation obviously means something else to the council and supporters of LTNs as well

Asset, if its that Suspicious double check by calling the police on 101. Whilst it may be innocent or not used on a crime, you could prevent future crime, the police can check it out in person.

Billy, it wax on the television news , sorry should have been clearer

Okay which version of Windows? 10, 11 or older

What version of word are you using or is it office 365 ? May help hone in on answers

There's an article on bbc London news about the mayors plan to "have a managed decline in bus services in Central London" by reducing routes that duplicate each other and redeployment the buses to the outer boroughs. The report shows how difficult it is for some commuters to get on already packed buses. Tje cynic in me wonders if the redeployed buses to the outer zone is also a way to justify extending the ULEZ as the outer boroughs will be better served by buses.🤔 Food for thought, and I suspect the removal of duplicated routes in central london will backfire as badly as a badly tuned polluting car when commuters start to return to the office on mass.

Sigh Kid, one upmanship over exactly where concord flew is so immature .. Especially as it was 110% for sure right over mine, as it used to make grandma Spartacus' teeth rattle in her glass

Bob You've left us in antCHEESYpation far too long and we demand your comparison results Don't Edan think of Brieing a Goat and making this a Saga ... For Cheeseus sake we need to know.

I'm curious to see if on the last day of the forum, if there will be an entry for the EDF 🤔
