  1. I think your video is some proof you’re perking up. Rest and relax while you get back to normal. We could hear you mother, your camera ear muffs work a treat. Sending you all kinds of well wishes. By the way, your video is spot on.

    1. Jane, I know you are being very kind, or are you just winding me up, but your comment has prompted me to go off on another rant. I think you have missed my point. To address your solutions, and I am trying not to shout, I don't want to scan any QR codes. That bit of plastic in my hand, whether it be a phone or debit card, will not control my life. I will not be a slave to it. From here on it is a slippery slope. It's the first step to controlling every aspect of our lives. You may want to go along with it, but I don't. The bank, and I am their customer, can wave goodbye to my account, if they do not change my card to a non contactless plain debit card. And by the way my phone is not able to connect to the internet. Chosen deliberately for that reason.

  3. Well, if you DO have to use your card (though I imagine that doesn't happen often), you can just put your pin in. You don't have to use contactless at all. But then I know you use cash all the time so guess you can tell the bank where to stick their card. I don't do QR codes either, if I can help it.
