Breaking News - Pensioner given Anti Social Bingo Order
A 76 year old pensioner who was BANNED from playing at her local bingo hall for arranging a trip to a rival venue is now being sponsored to play online!�
The lovely people at�Ladbrokesbingo.com�offered�a first ever "Bingo Ambassador" role to Rose Clemson after hearing that Mecca Bingo had slapped a lifelong ASBO - Anti Social Bingo Order (!)�on the elderly lady.�This meant that not only is Rose barred from her�local Mecca bingo hall, but more than 100 Mecca bingo halls across Britain too!
Ruairi Boyle, Head of Ladbrokes Bingo said,�"When Mrs Clemson's plight was brought to our attention our hearts went out to her.�"It does seem a drastic measure to ban a lifelong member - but in this instance their loss of a loyal customer is our gain.� With so much experience Mrs Clemson will prove an invaluable asset to Ladbrokes Bingo."�
Now Everything's Coming Up "Roses"!
As part of the sponsorship deal Ladbrokes Bingo have given grandmother Rose, a top of the range laptop along with a monthly cash deposit into her bingo account.�They will also present her with a flashy new Ladbrokes Bingo mobility scooter, so she can spread the word about her new online bingo experience.�And in return, pensioner Rose , who has been playing bingo for over 50 years will use her wealth of knowledge to help grow the brand, and advise on new games and promotions.�
Mr. Boyle added: "She will assume an ambassador role and act as an advisor/consultant on our many new games and promotions. Mrs Clemson is the linchpin of one of the most powerful social networks ever, local community - after all word of mouth is the basis of sites such as Facebook and Myspace.� Who knows, she could be the first of many recruits we commission to spread the Ladbrokes Bingo word.� It could be the beginning of a new 'old school' network - The Blue Rinse bingo brigade.� We're really excited to have her on board!"�
Rose was moved to tears when she learnt of the generous offer from Ladbrokesbingo.com.�She said: "I can't believe their kindness - I'm gobsmacked, not only have I been given the chance to continuing playing, but I now have a new job at the grand old age of 76.� I can't wait to get started.� I guess its true what they say every cloud does have a silver lining.� I'll still be able to play bingo and also venture out on my new Ladbrokes Bingo scooter to see my friends and get them to play on Ladbrokes Bingo too."
