I read this article with amusement. Its about a small boy who on a holiday to Skegness spent his time trying to win a cuddly animal from the crane machines. After finding that the crane was rather ineffective at picking up the cuddly toys he crawled in through the hatch to claim his prize another way, and of course got stuck. I can sympathise here, as a child I wasted most of my pocket money trying to win cuddly toys from these things. I eventually did the sums and realised that based on the price to play the machine and the amount of goes it took to win a toy, I was better off just buying the toy and saving myself a bit of time and money.

And what about the cuddly toys? The fear of the crane descending? Or is it joy at the possibility of escape from prison – but the pain of the crane’s jaws biting into your flesh.
I read recently that when distressed, one way to improve your wellbeing is to blog. So, being a recent escapee (see above), I have started my own blog on http://www.bestplushlife.com – although I can’t yet talk about my experiences "with the crane".
