The worst bit is that no-one at BCC can actually say how much money came in last year, how much money was paid out last year, and how much money they currently have in bank accounts. Not even sure how this is possible, but that's where they currently are at. Potentially having no money isn’t the worst thing about BCC then, absolute shambles.

Chindie Posted May 1 VT Supporter Share Posted May 1 This wallet talk has reminded me, I often wonder how my dad managed to walk around with the amount of stuff he used to carry. He had his wallet, standard leather folding wallet with a button latch, for notes and basic cards. He had a coin purse, a small leather half moon tray with a lid essentially that would carry various coins at any moment so he always had a small amount of money split in various denominations on him. He had a card wallet which had all the other cards he might need - breakdown, less used bank stuff, loyalty etc. He also had his phone obviously - and before he retired that was often 2 phones. And we're talking chunky phones here, before the smart phone really. Then he had car keys with key ring, for most of the time after he retired til he died that was a chunky VW flip key thing, with a big VW keyring that doubled as a trolley token. Then 2 sets of house keys - different keys for different locks split across different key rings and including multiple keys for locks and padlocks and sheds and whatnot that we didn't even have anymore. When he was working this would also include another set of keys for a work van, and for some work facilities where he had key access. When I was very young I remember him saying someone had got onto his work spreadsheet he used to record his work and had renamed it the Jailer's Timesheet because of how many keys he carried. Then he always had a pen, pencil and utility knife on him, and a watch, and if he was working usually also a notepad, highlighter and tape measure. If he'd gone past a magnet he'd have had his clothes ripped off. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Albrighton Posted May 1 VT Supporter Share Posted May 1 I switched to a card holder about 5 years ago. I bought one in time for a wedding so as to be appear a bit smarter (best man so a little bit more on display than usual). I then of course was given a card holder as a gift by the groom. Fortunately the gift was better than the one I bought myself. Still not a big fan of loose change in my pockets, but it’s not a regular occurrence.

Rob182 Posted May 1 Share Posted May 1 Someone bought me a card holder about 10 years ago. I couldn’t get on board. I always have coins. In previous years I think it was for the odd places that still didn’t take card, then I feel like I wanted it for a trolley coin, and the local shop started charging for card payments under £3. Now I have young kids and they always ask for 50p or whatever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genie Posted May 1 Share Posted May 1 We have a bowl in the kitchen where I usually throw loose change. Then it gets spent on car parking or my daughters swimming club that’s still cash only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
