Ann Davis and her husband Joe have been regular players at their local Gala Bingo club at the Galleries Leisure Park for years, along with their close friends Nancy and Peter Stevenson. When Ann won the £60,000 jackpot, Peter was in his house holding a barbecue in celebration of his 60th birthday.
As promised years ago, the Davis’ have kept their word and will share the great bingo win with the Stevensons. This is the second big win that Ann has had, as last year the lucky lady won £10,000, which was also shared by her and her husband with their friends.
After her bingo win, Ann said a few words: “We always said we would share whatever any of us won, and this time is no different. I won £10,000 last year at the Gala and shared that with them. It was Peter’s 60th birthday on Saturday and they were having a family barbecue so didn’t come to bingo. Later that evening we gate crashed the barbecue and told them the good news! Needless to say they were really excited and as happy as we were. I come from a big family; I was the oldest of 13. It will be nice to have some money in the bank to help boost our pension.”
So, what can we learn from this story? That friends are one of the most precious things that life has to offer, that it is true loyalty exceeds anything material, and that you can most certainly count on them regularly. Remember to respect, trust and be loyal to your friends, as maybe one day you might even get a reward that exceeds £30,000..you might actually get to walk along the path of life, side by side with an amazing being that truly cares for you.
