These are the flower power generation pensioners. It's quite patronising to think they are too dodery, and daft, to use modern banking facilities, such as chip 'n' pin.

That's exactly why I pointed out that I wasn't suggesting that chip and pin is too befuddling for people in their sixties. I didn't mean to patronise anyone. Katex, Margaret and Cashman are in their sixties aren't they?
They are not old at all.
I would never suggest that they are too doddery for chip and pin. Far from it. I was talking about people much older, people in their 80s and 90s.
