In Padstow today. One of around five or six places that were cashless. The ferry to Rock across the Camel estuary was one. It’s a long time since we’ve been in Padstein, Rock is well over rated too. I preferred the Lizard, the area around Lostwithiel, The pirates of Penzpants, the Lands End peninsula along with the entire coastline round to St Ives and Caribs Bay

St Ives is funny with the narrow streets.
I think overall my favourite part of Cornwall was Arundel.

I remember liking it very much. My favourite Cornish place is St. Mawes. There is very little to see really but we just love the atmosphere. We love Mousehole too. Went to Mawgan Porth today too where I spent some very happy childhood hols.

We went to St Mawes a lot as the step mother had a holiday house in St Just in Roseland (as one does).
I suppose its nice but I prefer Sussex.

Cashless society is just around the corner! Mind you it didn't work out terribly well in the previous attempt.

When I first started work in the finance section of a civil service office, every Friday we had to go to the bank and pick up cash to make up wages. we were then offered an inducement to accept bank payments. This was the thin end of the wedge. They then got us used to using cards with the introduction of credit cards so they can charge us for spending our own money, reducing the interest on accounts and even now charging us for handling our money with bank charges on the accounts into which we have no option but to hold to get our wages/pensions. So our control is gradually being taken over by them. When they made a complete balls up of it in 2008, they even forced Governments to use even more of our money to bail them out. They are even now closing branches and ATM's (another misused apostrophe a.) so that their auxiliary undertakings can take even more off us in withdrawal fees from 'private' ATM's. Somewhere there must be some anarchic action we can take to reverse or at least retard the process. Firstly, cock up some of the public undertakings by refusing direct debits and turn up at the council offices every month with cash, offering no alternative. I wonder what the courts would think when presented with evidence of their refusal to accept your payment. Pay for your car tax with cash over the post office counter. Insist on cheques as payment of your wages, benefits or pensions. It would be inconvenient to us to start with, but eventually bow to their demands once ours are met to recompense us for the insidious costs they impose for their convenience.

Everyone was told by the psychological behavioural unit at SAGE, with the assistance of the corrupt NHS, that banknotes and coins carried the SARS-CoV2 virus. It worked. 'Covid' is about control. But you still can't see it. I don't remember being told that. I do remember being told that the virus had a short lifespan on surfaces, which is incompatible with tour assertion. Some just cough and sneeze all over their hands, then take cash and hand over to pay, the person taking it now has it on their hands. Transfer Time on cash can be just seconds. I am not saying it happens every time, but if you work a till, how many transactions do you do per sift? Not a risk I would want my loved ones to take if they worked in a shop in the early stages of a pandemic, where the ease of infection transfer and mortality rates are not known.

I’m surprised that anyone working on a till survived this past couple of years. Maybe they should be payed danger money?

Did it work, was it really necessary? We will never know for sure, but being careful is always better than being reckless.

The polar opposite of Foxy! Eh? I'm the one who said 'Covid' was a load of bollocks from the beginning. No-one died, did they? Not in the hundreds of thousands. But a lot of doctors enriched themselves by stamping 'Covid' as cause (or contributory factor) and getting paid for exactly that. A fake pandemic - terrorism spread from your very own 'Government' and their mates at SAGE and the NHS and the pharmaceutical companies. Many fell for it - the others who didn't were caught up in the sheer stupidity of the mindless, moronic masses. Like the Dave's of Bedworth who ran off to get their jabs in case "they got the Covids". Pathetic. Some nutters are still wearing face masks to this day. And the laws have been changed so that lockdowns are easier to implement. The EU 'Vaccine Passport' scheme is still running until June 2023. The 'Covid' scam has not gone away.

You understand the term Polar opposite yes?
