Mums is the word for the children of a woman in Wolverhampton this month.
The two children of a 48-year-old lady were celebrating after their mum bagged �15,000 playing bingo at the Mecca Club in Springvale Way, Bilston.
She has been playing at the club since it opened and regularly visits four or five times per week – a loyalty that has finally paid off for her.
The lucky lady told the National Bingo of her family's reaction to her big win.
She said: "My husband was very pleased and my two children said 'Good on you, Mum' when I told them how much I'd won."
The money will go towards treating her family and paying off some bills, she added.
According to National Bingo, eight per cent of the UK population plays the game at least twice a week, which equates to over three million people.
Furthermore, around 500 clubs link up around the nation to play the game every day of the year, bar Christmas Day.
