Tangled up in Blue
Certified Senior Citizen⭐🦐
I have been helping older people(Usually over 75) for years when able. They are from a different age. Most don't have a smart phone and computer. Some don't have a debit card. Those that did don't understand contactless. They all prefer to use cash. Yes there are some that can use this sort of technology, and can understand it. But from my experience, about 80% are having all sorts of problems at train stations, and car parking machines, etc. They need help in purchasing their ticket.
We stayed up in town the night before our last NL game at home last season.Personally I was rather miffed (staying near Lancaster Gate station) that there was an unmanned ticket office .Had used an all day travel cards the day before but the ticket machines weren't working when all I needed was a couple of single tickets to Tower Hill.Thank God for the helpful member of staff who explained the situation and told us we could use our C/C's to travel on. Either remove redudant ticket machines or put up a notice to explain the situation.NB this was well befoire peak tourist season had started..
