Fountain of Youth

As every woman will tell you, stay young for as long as you can. Now one woman has come forward with the secret to how she stays feeling so young and has lived to 94. The answer? Bingo.

94 year old, sherry loving, Ethel credits her weekly trips to her local bingo hall with her youthful energy. But she days it’s not the winning that energizes her; in fact she says her last win was £30 a year ago and it costs her £27 in taxi fare every time she visits— so why does she keep going back?

Keep your brain active

The sense of community bingo players have, whether chatting online or IRL is very refreshing and stress relieving. And the act of manually ‘dabbing’ your cards will keep your brain active! It’s very simple when you get down to it.

So, remember Roomies; Bingo is good for your health! Ethel says, “It keeps your brain active and even at my age I play six books. I once won £2,000 about 15 years ago. But it’s a long time since I won anything. My last win was about £30 a year ago.”

Happiness is yelling "Bingo!"
