 true! It does seem that some stores are not printing the full card number
 expiry etc on the receipt any more, but many still do. How many people think
 to properly destroy their copy when they are done with it (a few), and how
 many stores do the same (I'd guess none!)

Indeed. That is why we try to pay cash at restaurants, where quite a number 
of cards can be "skimmed". Apologies to all you law-abiding poorly-paid 
restaurant staff out there.
 UK tax law demands we keep our paperwork for 7 years - when it comes to 
disposal  I guess we will incinerate, or convert to papier mache. 

Kind regards
