Only thematically connected to the episode recounted below |
We were inspecting our bank account (on the app) a minute ago. Clare points to a line-item, £17 spent at Superdrug.
"That was me!"
She had spotted a bargain in electric toothbrush heads but didn't have the cash on hand. So for the very first time she paid contactlessly.
"So you're no longer a contactless virgin?"
"I felt a bit self-conscious."
"Well, I hope you didn't waste their time. They wouldn't have noticed, you know."
Indignantly: "I wasn't faffing around!"
"You know you don't have to actually touch the card. That's considered rather naff. The correct etiquette is to wave the card about half a centimetre from the device. The clue is in the name."
"I might shop there again."
"You mean, now you've discovered your card?"
Indignantly: "I'm not tap-happy!"
