It was a Sunday evening like any other at home, as my husband Karl, 71, and I settled on the settee for a couple of hours of relaxation before bed. Our Jack Russell dogs, Penny and Tess, lay snoozing by our feet.
I grabbed my mobile and logged onto Woman’s Own Bingo. I’d won free tickets for Play Off Palace Weekly from winning a game of Sapphire Bingo during the week.
Play Off Palace Weekly is an exclusive free bingo game played at the end of the week, and to enter you need to have won tickets on one line, two lines or a Full House on selected bingo games. I clicked onto the room where the excitement was building among the members in the chat room.
As the numbers appeared, I couldn’t help smiling. As always, I was shouting for the ones I needed. Karl was amused and was used to my enthusiasm as I played.
