6M English From bbclearningenglish.com Hello and welcome to 6 Minute English.
I'm Alice.
And I'm Neil.
Alice, if you've got two pounds, I've forgot my wallet and I need a coffee, I've only got these pennies.
Sorry, I always use my bank card in the cafeteria.
You use a card to buy coffee.
Yes, it's a tap and go card, so it's quick.
You don't enter your PIN number, and everyone in the coffee queue uses them, except you.
And today's show is about how we pay for things.
Well, I pay for things with money.
There are different kinds of money.
You're behind the curve digging around in your pockets for change, Neil.
Do you still use cheques too?
Yes, I do.
Cheques are very useful.
Now, being behind the curve means not keeping up with current trends.
So help me keep up, Alice.
What's a tap and go card?
