never have, never will.
I got cured of gambling before I even started on a leave train from Edinburgh to the Smoke. We all had Christmas leave pay in our pockets amounting to 2 or 3 months money. Card school started but fortunately I just sat back and watched; didn't know how to play the game anyway.
One guy, married Killick (Leading Hand = Corporal) with kids, lost his entire leave pay, borrowed it back and lost it again three times, then was physically sick. Put me off for life.
