I have been living in the North Cotswold area for most of my life. I went to school at the local primary and later went on to comprehensive school in chipping Campden. Once I had finished my secondary education I went on to college to do a Secretarial and General Reception Diploma. However, there were no such things as computers in those days so everything I learnt is not of much use to me today.

I married at 32 and had my 1st and only child at 33. I have a brother who is 3 years younger than me who also lives locally. I come from a very large close knit family and I consider myself very lucky to have the most important people to me living close by.

It was around the time of my marriage my life became so different. A married 30 something, baby on the way at home full time, looking after my recently disabled stepdaughter and soon to be looking after a young baby and a husband who worked long hours. I needed something to fill the gaps and it was then that I took to playing internet bingo.

With no social life to speak of as such, life would have been very dull without the social life I made for myself by playing online bingo. In the beginning I won quite a lot and I am probably one of the rare people who can actually say that I was in profit. But nothing could beat the social aspect of playing bingo online. I made a lot of friends who kept me sane. Some of whom I have met and some I haven’t.

One great thing about playing online bingo is that you can play whenever you please, whether it is in the morning or the middle of the night, whatever suits you.
