Stupid little things that bug you

I've started a new job on Trafford Park and cycle past the Trafford Centre where there's lovely wide pavements and cycle lanes, yet zombies still walk along the cycle lanes.

Tempted to attach one of these to my handle bars and give em a good honking to move the fuck out of the way.

Cyclists on pavements will always be a bigger problem than pedestrians on cycle lanes.
 
Do people still use, and queue up for, cash ?

(That should wind a few up on here haha)

Seriously though I haven't needed or used cash for at least five years.
Local Barber "Cash Only", Chippy "Cash Only", Dry Cleaners "Cash Only", Window Cleaner "Cash Only", Car Mechanic "Cash Only". Village Shop "Cash Only". Seems small business are switching to avoid increasing merchant fees.

Footnote: Local Co-Op does accept cards, but on Wednesday their system was down!

Or money laundering and the like?

Sounds like tax avoidance to me.

I wouldn't use any business that demanded cash.
But that's just me. I pay my fair share of tax, why shouldn't they?

Obviously not in the UK but cash is dying in Oz. Maybe I couldn't live without cash in the UK but it's very easy here.

It’s easy enough here. My only cash usage is for the local cabby and the window cleaner. Most pubs have a terminal on the bar nowadays.
