@TravellingMan22, that is why cash is king. It’s fun watching the bartender, tongue tip protruding and eyebrows heading North, trying to figure if the proffered notes equate with what the computer demands. “Card Only” businesses can, I’m sure... -

@Damien Reynolds Me too. I’m a very law abiding citizen. Comfortable bank balance, all taxes paid, legitimate passports and an Avios account. I’ve got comforting security clearance and still get called “sir” in appropriate circumstances. A wink...

Tin, like usual it takes me 4 times to read what you wrote until I actually understand what you are saying. The truth is nobody cares about me. I am law abiding, I don't overstay visas. I love to use my credit card because that just means more...

Haha.
I can trump that. As I’ve recounted in another, similar, thread my data was collected and retained and even, occasionally used to extract a monetary advantage way back in the 1960’s. Way before the internet, way before bot farms, way before “my... -

It’s only been seven years; but you may well get to nominate a charity to receive my long-offered £50 donation in your name. All it takes is a link to a credible (investigated by the cops and found true) report of anyone outside laboratory...

I work IT for a living. and agreed with all of the above. consider this. I use Alexa across my house, for ease of lights, stereo, etc... i can sit and chat with a friend about a certain subject, say scuba diving, and mention a few places...

I think you'll be staying home alot as what's now in place in Spain is in place pretty much everywhere, if you're not confining yourself to free-camping or couch-surfing at friends' places. It's not a big deal. And as @Tincatinker so brilliantly...
