IRISH BINGO....  :-)

 

 

  A young girl from Donegal leaves home to find work in the

bright Lights of London.

 

She comes home 6 months later and steps out of a taxi

wearing a full-length mink coat.

 

'Begorrah, Colleen,' says her mother. 'Tis a lovely soft

coat yer wearin an' it looks so expensive.

 

Where did ye get that?'

 

Colleen replies, 'Sure now, I won it at the bingo. Don't

they have Wonderful prizes in London?’

 

When the weekend's over, Colleen returns to the bright

lights, but she's back to visit her mum a few months later. This

time, when she steps out of the taxi, she's

Wearing a beautiful gold wristwatch and a large diamond ring.

 

Same exchange with Mum ... Same 'Won it at bingo!'

 

Colleen returns to the bright lights again. A few months

later, she's back. This time she's sporting a beautiful emerald

and diamond necklace with matching bracelet and

Earrings. She hands her mother 1,000 pounds and explains

that she won it all in bingo.

 

Then she asks Mum to run her a bath as she needs to freshen up.

When Colleen gets to the bathroom, there's only a quarter

inch of hot water in the bath. Colleen, a

Wee bit peeved at her Mum being so cheap with the hot

water after being handed 1,000 pounds, calls

Downstairs, 'Mum! Sure now, didn't I ask you to run me a

bath? There's only a quarter inch of water in the tub!'

 

'Indeed there is, me darlin,' replies her Mum. 'But we

don't want ye getting yer bingo card wet now, do we?
