the Royal Bank of Scotland at Rothesay, when they ..3.. stuck in the ..4.. doors. They
had to be helped free by the staff and, after thanking everyone, sheepishly left the
building.
A few minutes later the returned and ..5.. their intention ..6.. robbing the bank,
but ..7.. of the staff believed them. When, at first, they ..8.. £5,000, the head cashier
laughed ..9.. them. convinced that it was a practical joke.
Considerably dishearten by this, the ..10.. leader reduced his demand first to £500
then to £50 and ultimately to 50 pence. By this ..11.. the cashier could ..12.. control
herself for laughter.
Then one of the men jumped ..13.. the counter and fell awkwardly on the floor,
clutching at his ankle. The other two made their getaway, but got trapped in the
revolving doors ..14.. a second time, desperately pushing the ..15.. way.
