Card still works at the Kosgoda guesthouse — do we still need cash for tuks and fruit — with a damp room and a kettle, 31 Aug
Notes are thin. Bank-door machine at Kosgoda already has a line. Card still works at the guesthouse but we need cash for tuks and fruit. Not trying to invent a shutdown. Monday 31 Aug. With a damp room and a kettle, 31 Aug. Cannot tell if this is ordinary or a tired mistake. Locals, please contradict the group chat.

Walk to the next machine first. The bank-door one is inside a timetable. Kosgoda ATMs run out on a leftover-rain weekday when everyone thinks the same. If both fail, the town side, not a cousin with a POS. Screenshot a failed swipe. I will not invent a Kosgoda-wide cash shutdown. It is queues.
Yellow means pay attention, not a brochure. Nobody here is quoting an official warning colour.
