Not me (for another couple of years!), but a device that is now taken for granted around the world: the humble ATM is 40 years old today.
The idea was invented by John Shepherd-Barron.
The BBC reports that the first machine was installed in London on 27th June 1967. The original machine pre-dated plastic cards and used a system of special cheques which were retained by the machine.
