[Padders 2,863]

So a thread about 1 and 2p coins has been turned into a cheerleading Jeremy thread

 

Back on topic Hackey………

When this was being discussed on the BBC the other day, showed a busker in London, (where else), with a card reader attached to her guitar case. While she'll still accept coins thrown into the case, you can tap your debit / credit against the card reader to automatically pay her.

 

Oh & she'd set the reader up to deduct £2 a time! Reet expensive dahn in that theer London town.
