    Great result! My in-laws came round, then the phone rang and I was on for over an hour so my bingo sadly had to be put on pause for a while (it's bad when you'd rather play bingo than talk you your mates!).

    Batgirl, we like both Ben & Jacob, unfortunately our boss had a little boy called Ben last year, and DH's name begins with a J, and we've already ruled out all names with the same initials! Boys names are so difficult, maybe they're wrong and it's a little girl so I can have something nice and pretty!

    'I couldn't go to the conert but gave the tickets to a friend at work - her hubbie and his friend went and then they sent me a box of chocolates as a thank you for the free tickets. I did try to sell them but they arrived the morning of the concert and I ran out of time :mad:'

    I know what you mean really but it looks as though you are saying you tried to sell the chocolates! I can just imagine you next Christmas opening your presents 'Oh its lovely I'll put it on Ebay - should sell well'!!!!

    :rotfl: I should have read it through after writing - it does look like I am saying I tried to sell the chocs! Give me a chance and I would. Instead they will come in handy for a little pressie for someone else. I have a savoury tooth so can take or leave chocolate (gimme chips, crisps and sausage rolls every time!). I was just glad someone could use the tickets and they didn't go to waste.

    Me and the other half have chosen Alfie for our first, although it will be a couple of years yet before we have any. By then I will have changed my mind :rolleyes:

    take it slowly - I found it difficult - if you get lost go back to the home page - play bingo - free bingo - if you try and go to purchase cards then you will get a list of 'rooms' which is a drop down list - amazon, seaside or names like that. Then look at the card prices and a lot will say 'free' or 00.00. Then go to purchase cards in the bottom right-ish....... its hard for me to do this from memory, but I promise if you try and guess what's what, it will come to you! You can just click on things to see what's there and it will work out - it needs a bit of patience and persistence.....

    I've been setting up the free bingo on Gala all afternoon and just leaving it. I came back to it and found endless games all not won! - but found the pop-up asking me to fund the account was just getting in the way of me advance booking more free games. I gave in and funded my account with £5. In the FIRST funded game I played, with 133 people in the room, I won £10 on the one liner and THEN IN THE SAME GAME I won the £50 jackpot! So that's £60 on the first game! I haven't tried to withdraw it yet! BUT I am really suspicious of that win - did they set it up to get me hooked and to get me playing more? Well I'm going to take the money and run!:j :j :j :j :j


    :T:T:T:Twell done I withdraw mine though did leave a tenner still playing as won another tenner:D
    Just back into comping past few months to help me get over rubbish in life.... won Hotpoint fridge freezer, soda stream
