you should never ever have your pin written down. i don't know what bank your mum and gf are with but through most ATM's you can change your pin to something you will remember. but i know with the abbey you can only do this the first time you put your card in.
when at work, i've only seen a few cases of people who have had a problem with card fraud. without going into detail, one customer had a lot more than punky withdrawn from their account.
if you are going to a bank to use their atm, some banks have atm's inside the banking hall.... i always try and use these because it is safer.
a while back our local paper ran a story about the atm machines in my village, so i tend not to use them now.
and the other thing is always shred any card receipts you throw out
