£100k bingo jackpot

Welsh nurse has hit the bingo jackpot by winning £100,000. Joan Jackson, a nurse at University Hospital of Wales in Cardiff, arranged the evening to say goodbye to a colleague who was leaving to have a baby. Jackson won £100,000 at The Gala Club Cardiff’s National Game after completing a full house in 41 numbers, the lowest call in any of the 500 clubs playing nationwide. “I’m from Liverpool originally and I always use my lucky red Liverpool pen to play bingo,” said Joan.
