  • I'm only a newbie but...
    • When you make excuses to leave your mates on a Saturday so that you can get home to play free bingo
    • When you are seriously considering asking said friends to 'borrow' their identities because you've run out of free bingo sites! :eek:
    • You feel this isn't really unreasonable because you will share any winnings with them and who doesn't like free money?
    • ...This isn't weird, right? :p
