A numbers game enthusiast from Oxford is celebrating this week after winning more than £60,000 on the National Bingo Game (NBG).
The 38-year-old mother of three made a full house in just 36 numbers to scoop the £61,808 jackpot at her local Gala Club, the NBG's official website reports.
This will make her one of the last NBG winners in Gala Bingo history, as the firm is set to pull out of the popular competition later this year.
Discussing how she reacted when she found out she had won, the anonymous lady remarked: "I made my Nan jump because I shouted so loud!
"I couldn't believe it and I went bright red."
Some of the money will go on new furniture for the woman's house, although she is unsure what she will do with the rest.
Holidays, new cars and home renovations are among the most popular purchases with bingo winners.
