OK - I tell you. Young ATC cadet on summer camp at RAF Cranwell gets into the Cranes Club on the first night. Has never seen a slot machine before, loses his entire weeks spending money in about half an hour. Later that evening Sgt R...a found the lad crying in a corner of the club and asked him what was wrong. Cadet explains and to cut a long story short uncle Les gave him fiver (lot of money in 1969) to get through the week so long as he didn't go near the slot machine again.
