We were out and about with Sammy dog on a 5 mile walk at one of our favourite places near home. After the walk we visited the centre cafe for some well earned refreshment. Queuing for some food and drink an old chap was paying for his food and using his card. As so often happens with a card reader it fails to register first time. The cafe assistant asked the old chap to tap it again. Where upon he jabbed his index finger hard on the reader and their whole system when down from the card reader to the computerised food order system. The cafe had probably experienced problems before so reverted to a manual system took our order and we eventually paid on leaving. I am putting a link on here for the centre as a visit if you are near or a serious mountain biker or walker is well worth it If you prefer to view the magnificent scenery you can do so on a 7 mile drive through the forest and hills with plenty of car parks picnic areas and places where you can easily reach the top of the hills There are also many very friendly birds here a reference to another member who posted about the crows
