My wife and I had two celebrations!
By Paul Hillman, 56, from Pontypridd
As I clicked ‘spin’ on the screen, I heard the kettle boil behind me.
Turning around, I made myself a cuppa.
Suddenly, noise erupted from my laptop.
Ding-ding-ding-ding-ding…
Spinning back to my screen I saw five diamonds lined up.
I’d won!
I’d been playing a few spins on the Diamond Bonanza slots on Chat Mag Bingo after I’d finished work for the day.
And scooped the progressive jackpot – on a 25p spin!
My jaw dropped when I saw what I’d won. A huge £4,384!
It was my biggest-ever win.
Me and my wife Sharon own a women’s boutique and, after a long day, Sharon, 54, had gone up for an early night.
But I raced upstairs, burst into our room.
‘Sharon!’ I called out.
She was just drifting off.
‘Come and have a look at this!’ I cried, taking her by the hand and leading her back down the stairs.
‘I’ve just won thousands on the slots!’ I told her excitedly.
