Arh yes, but when I worked in London on a contract about 6-7 years ago:
1. I had no idea what an Oyster card was and when I got on a bus and tried to pay cash the driver thought I was an idiot and told me they didn’t take cash and I had to get off, with a consequent delay, whilst the queue behind me got irritated.
2. When i tried to pay for my lunch in a local sandwich shop with cash and handed over a £10 note there was much tutting from behind me in the queue as the shop assistant had to ask her supervisor how to use the till with a consequent delay!
