Bitchin’ Bingo

Overview

If you’re not already a bingo convert, you probably think it isn’t a social event for those under 60 who still possess a set of their own teeth.

However, like lawn bowls and all things crafty, bingo, it has been discovered, is actually heaps of fun. This is particularly true when hosted by Bingo Mistress Viv, whose personality is about as big as her beehive hairstyle.

She attracts a crowd of regulars for the fortnightly event held at Cassette Nine. But, be warned, unless you have the good sense to turn up before the 7:30 kick-off,  there's usually standing room only. Luckily though, if you have a group of 10 or more you can call the bar to arrange a booth booking.

Prizes vary but include such things as bar tabs, bottles of vodka, cupcakes and meat packs. Not that it’s all about the giveaways, but more the attitude of its host who often shouts out numbers with westie type calls like, “B4 my cousin Tracey’s a whore.”
