All true, but prices are definitely on the rise.
A few years ago you struggled to give them away.

Surely each one converted to Beanz tinz makes the remaining ones more valuable.... ...cue STEMO for his obvious commentWhat obvious comment? The one about the price increasing from £2 to £2.50?

I have no doubt whatsoever that is the planned destination.
Once there they can if they choose then control just about every aspect of our lives.
Its the kind of thing Blair has dreamed happy dreams about his whole life, and he is pulling Starmers strings on this.
Starmer is just the useless, but potentially useful , idiot in this game.

Surely its a shame to scrap it for the want of a bit of welding ! 
Just did a fair bit of welding on mine and it was only a few hours work, even for an old bloke like me
Im not much of a welder, but its not difficult to learn how to make something solid and presentable if you spend a few hundred quid on a welder.
Or if you dont fancy that, a local garage or company probably wont charge a fortune to do it.
Imo, they are well worth saving now and becoming a bit collectable.
I had someone knock on my door a couple of weeks ago asking if I would sell mine.
Irish bloke of course.

Mine doesnt automatically change when the clocks go back / forward, even if I put up with radio 2 ,so I just do it manually.
It also reverts to 2006 if I disconnect the battery.
I just assume its over 20 years old and isnt going to be perfect.

If the Britcard is to be an App on smartphones, whats to stop everyone simply telling the Govt. that they dont own one ?
I would imagine the only way they could disprove that is to have access to icloud and whatever the Android equivalent is ?

I was buying " singles" and a book of matches from age 13.
When I was able to buy packets of 10 or 20 I went for Embassy Regal.
Strong little buggers. Its was like smoking camel shit wrapped in old bus tickets.

My Granny used to send me to the corner shop to buy them for her when I was about 7 years old.
She smoked 80 of them a day.
It wasnt a big shock when she died of lung cancer at 68.

The Govt. demanded recently that Apple give them a back door into icloud (possibly connected to the Britcard thing ?) Apple refused and say they will never comply.
