. . .but do people still use cheques, in the UK they are nearly dead apart from some companies

Over 50% of my face to face business is paid for by check.  Until very recently, you couldn't use a credit card or debit card to pay for items bought at an auction, and some auction companies probably still don't take cards.  None of the Amish folks I deal with take plastic, with the exception of one wholesale supplier.  Personally, I write only a half dozen a month or so, but around here, checks are still a very common method of payment, especially with the 40 and over folks and farmers.

Stewart, I live about a half hour away from you in Plant City, and have many friends and some kinfolk in Lutz. I enjoy seeing your leather pictorials and if you ever want to meet and chat about the craft over a couple of beers let me know.

Thank you for the offer. Been here since 1954.  Have to hang around the house most of the time.

Not everyone has computers or smart phones. Just like some of us still have hardwired house phones,
