It does take longer but one meets the customer and usually ends up with other work from them. Building a bond with the customer is the way I like to do things.

Scottish going collecting is a pain esp if you ve done it for 25 years and have more than 100 customers!
I've not collected for years now due to electronic payments,the pandemic was the catalyst to get even more customers to pay by BACS....now its around 80% BACS and the other 20% a mixture of cash/card on the day
I reckon they'll be no physical cash within the next 10 years.

Browns restaurant, Park Street, Bristol, Parsons Bakery, High Kingsdown Bristol and The Forge & Fern, Staple Hill, Bristol have now all recently gone "no cash policy"

Heated lunch box Google it
Last nights left overs, Ginsters pasty or whatever you like. Plug into lighter socket and 30 to 60 mins later, a hot lunch.
It’s not equipment, but great if you work all day

I think it will be more like 5 to 10 years and there won't be cash anymore. The gov would love a cashless society, no one can avoid income tax by taking cash payments or dodge vat by taking cash! No more cash in hand jobs. It would all be very easy to trace with gov gaining access to everyone's bank accounts - that's coming very soon if not already!
There is one society that would die if cash was every to be made redundant? The Charities. The Gov would need to step in and bail them out or revert back to cash. There might come a time when so much electronic money goes missing that we will have no choice but go back to cash. They used to tell us how much went missing each year but the last figure was £36 Billion a decade ago then they stopped posting it.

Is that coffee shop still there at the top of Park Street that blows the coffee aroma out in to the street. I remember that being there in the 70s.
