Playing Bingo the old Fashioned Way

I have to admit that I am addicted to bingo. I used to play at all the bingo halls in my area five days a week. Soon I, and some acquaintances, formed a group and we used to travel together, and play at the same table. What started as a way of meeting some people and spending two three hours in the evening turned into a passion. My major spending was on bingo tickets and food. Even after getting married and raising children I still found time for bingo. What I did notice was that there was more pressure from my family to play less bingo. They did this very cleverly and now after retiring from bingo, I realize it was a well planned operation. Either a child suddenly had to be taken to a school play, or I had to attend a family outing. Also my bingo buddies started dwindling.

There is no fun in playing bingo alone, it has to be with family or friends. Anyway my addiction to bingo soon wore off and then one day I came to know about online bingo. Well I tried my hand at it, but the feel was just not the same and I am lousy at computers. So I have bid a fond farewell to bingo – at least temporarily!
