rooms to choose from.

I was so impressed with how

simple the games were to play.

I loved relaxing with a game

of bingo and a cup of tea.

And in the 10

years that I’ve

been a member,

I’ve even won a few

small jackpots too.

Then, in

January 2019,

on a day off from

work, I was on my

way to Bradford

to visit my mum

Margery, 78, along with my

daughter Julie, 35.

Before Julie picked me up, as

I do like to play the morning

game of Session Bingo, I bought

a bundle of tickets where you

pay one price for 15 games.

The games would last

for an hour.

I waited for the 10am start.

Within a few minutes,

Julie picked me up and

we went on our way.

But then, at

around 10.20am,

I noticed I had a

notification on

my mobile.

Unlocking my

phone, I couldn’t

believe what

I saw in by

bingo balance.

It had shot

up by £2,572!

‘Oh my

goodness,

Julie! You’ll

never guess

what,’ I said,

gobsmacked.

‘What is it,

Mum?’ Julie replied.

‘I’ve just won over £2,000 on

the bingo!’ I giggled.

‘Have you really? That’s

amazing!’ Julie said, just as

shocked as me.

I felt like I was on cloud nine.

What a fantastic way to start

my morning!

But I waited for my big

cheque to arrive so I could

surprise my partner, Jem,

57, with it.

Just like Julie,

he was amazed too.

‘I can’t believe

it!’ he replied

excitedly, admiring

my cheque.

Quickly, I got

thinking about

what I would do

with the money.

There were so many

possibilities with what I could

do with my win...

But I knew straight away.
