Bingo Creature.

Bingo was originally an Italian Lotto in the 15th century.  It eventually became the game we know today  and introduced to Britain in the nineteen twenties.

Growing up in the northwest of England I often witnessed people playing this game,  particularly in amusement arcades in places like Morecambe, Blackpool, Scarborough and northern social clubs.  One person I remember very well was Bingo Creature.  I hope you don't take offence with my compositions?  They are only a bit of fun!
This is a strange creature predominantly made up of the female member of the species.  It is the curse of the social clubs of Great Britain and Skelmersdale. 
Old and not so very old ladies, buy a book of bingo cards and attempt to win the grand sum of two pounds.  God forbid you be the person who happens to be stood at a bar talking when the numbers are being called.  
Little old lady wearer of the purple rinse and polyester slacks suddenly changes into bingo creature.  If you’ve seen the possessed girl in the Exorcist.  Well you are now about to meet her mother, bingo creature.  
Did you happen to speak during her game of bingo?  You’re worse than the man who announces:
 “Order, order.  Can we have order please?  The pies are ready”
  Hell hath no fury on a bingo ladies scorn.    Imagine preventing some-one from winning TWO POUNDS?

    1. I am glad you liked my bingo observations Valerie. The number of times old ladies would shout: Shush. So they could hear the bingo caller. I suppose it was worth playing in a wet northern summer? Thanks!

  2. I used to love hearing the words with the numbers being called out from the bingo parlours as we walked along Yarmouth seafront, Kelly's Eye and that sort of thing. Loved it. A few years ago I was working with a girl who was leaving to go to another job (in the council social services from one department to another) and she chose a night out at the Bingo for her leaving do. We all went along to Mecca - she got us temporary membership for the evening. It was the best leaving do I have ever been to. Brilliant, great fun, friendly people and a few bingo cards thrown in. Thanks for reminding me about Bingo Dave.

  3. Thanks for your bingo thoughts Rachel. Yarmouth is a great example of a quintessential English seaside resort. We once visited it and I was impressed. Perhaps you should consider buying a property there again? Sounds like you had a fun night at Mecca. Thanks!

  4. There was a popular song at the height of the craze. I think it went: she’s bingo crazy / she’s bingo mad and something about losing the little bit of sense she had . .

  6. You neglected to mention the most obvious physical feature of the bingo creature. Bingo wings! Loose lard-coloured flesh that hangs from the creature's upper arms, flapping like the empty dugs of an exhausted sow. I hope I am not nourishing your private sexual fantasies too much here.

  7. Bingo wings! Of course. There are some strange creatures out there YP. Thanks for the humour it's always much appreciated.

  8. My grandmother, my great grandmother, my aunts and I played Bingo everywhere. I got to keep all the prizes, even though I could barely reach my grandmother's purse, to have them carried home. There were no bingo wings I ever noticed.

  9. my husband and I have been married for about 7 yrs now. We were happily married with two kids, a boy and a girl. 3 months ago, I started to notice some strange behavior from him and a few weeks later I found out that my husband is seeing someone. He started coming home late from work, he hardly care about me or the kids anymore, Sometimes he goes out and doesn't even come back home for about 2-3 days. I did all I could to rectify this problem but all to no avail. I became very worried and needed help. As I was browsing through the Internet one day, I came across a website that suggested that Dr jeffrey can help solve marital problems, restore broken relationships and so on. So, I felt I should give him a try. I contacted him and he did a spell for me. Two days later, my husband came to me and apologized for the wrongs he did and promise never to do it again. Ever since then, everything has returned back to normal. I and my family are living together happily again.. All thanks to Dr jeffrey . If you need a spell caster that can cast a spell that truly works, I suggest you contact him. He will not disappoint you. This is his E-mail:
