I'm sure that the female version is actually MUCH longer than that, Alba ;-)

[Buenchico ducks to avoid the missiles being launched by AB members 'of the fairer sex' and then ducks again because he's just used a sexist term!]

Actually, I spent a day (working on a travel survey) in my car sitting directly opposite a drive-through cash machine in Colchester. It was quite interesting watching the various ways that drivers (of both genders) managed to use the machine!

LOL Chris, I'm sure that list is longer but due to female delicacies, it was shortened :-)))

Waiting for a taxi at local supermarket was quite interesting, watching both genders parking in the 'bays' or reversing out of them.
I miss doing that...

And there's your problem with men, Alba......they do everything far too quickly...wham, bam and off.......... ;-)

Brava ! We've had those drive-thru machines for years & I swear that's what happens half the time.
What puzzles me is why the keys have Braille dots. Then again ...

They use JCB's to withdraw money around here.
