You've spent the day counting Bingo adverts?

It's just that it's now legal to advertise gambling on the TV - and the con artists (allegedly) are now circling to see how many mugs they can suck into their grubby grasp...

Just another example of the way this government is 'improving our lives'. I wonder how many brown envelopes were handed over to get that bit of legislation passed?

i went bingo with a girl friend of mine who was bored one night and said 'do you want to go it'll be fun'

well after that night i very strongly challenged her idea of fun! it WAS as BORING AS HELL, i had more fun watching half the old ladies falling asleep and the other half concentrating so hard that their teeth were nearly falling out!

complete waste of money too, paid about £15 to get in and didn't win once, not even a line!

na, more like the last week. sitting in my hotel room in the evenings watching freeview tv... and unfortunately having to see those bloody adverts

What about poker Mates that used to go out on Friday nights now stop in to play poker. I'm not talking about for fun or a few pence either. Serious money changes hands and also vehicles Don't get me wrong, it's a good card game to play but the world seems to have gone gambling mad................

I can't resist a pound on the lottery on Saturdays, I'm so weak. I couldn't sit with someone shouting numbers at me or try to learn to play cards though.
