with contact less getting more popular, this sort of thing us going away.
I've had it put in the pub, and eventually will save me time, when I have explained to almost every person who has a contact less card how it works, because they seem to be in capable of reading a letter from their bank.

You have to explain?
You press it to the thing and lights happen and a receipt comes out.

By single rounds, do you mean one drink
or one round of say, a dozen drinks?

Both.
Run a tab or go to the cash machine and get £30 out.

Putting your card behind the bar is about the easiest way to fall victim to card cloning and fraud.

Nah, if you give your card and PIN to your housemate, you don't even have to leave the house.

Yup!
I'm well looking forward to when you have, like, a barcode on your hand or something and you just pass that over a machine and cash is a thing of the past.

I might get my oyster card implanted to my willy, so I can just wave my dick over the barrer and it'll let me through.
Got to be careful though, it might end up letting people through 4 barriers down. IF YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN.
