Do you still keep cash in your pocket?

What in amongst the crisp red ones?

Try it in a taxi......

On a serious note, I don't really keep any money on me mainly because I tend to blow it on tat or it will subconsciously tell me I'm flush and I'll pop into somewhere like the Apple Store and buy something that I've managed to live without but somehow now think its a must have gadget. Generally I just go around with a debit / credit card and £30 x £1 coins for parking in Kensington.

I seem to keep mine in the washing machine at the moment! It's certainly clean. On the plus side it's great when you find some £1 coins not so good for notes, that's where I need Aussie dollar notes as they are plastic and would probably make it through.

Been in a couple of taxis over the last few months, both carried a card machine, subject to a surcharge of course!

Pubby - sure i saw in the news recently that the £5 note was going to be replaced with a "plastic" note - will do some digging and re-post if i find it
