By Sarah Smithon Tuesday, 6 Nov 2007 A lady suffering from cancer has got lucky at the bingo this week scooping £100,000.
The lucky player was at the Mecca Club in Aylsham Road, Norwich when her luck took a turn for the better.
She told the National Bingo: "I sat there in shock when I realised I had won. I thought I must have just won the house prize. My friend had to tell me three times how much I had actually won to get it across to me."
Julie, who is married with three children, added: "I can't think yet what else I'm going to spend the money on as it's still too much of a shock, so I think any decisions will have to wait until after Christmas. My husband still doesnt believe it."
Currently Julie is receiving treatment for non-Hodgkin's lymphoma for the third time and says that she will need to finish her course of treatment before jetting off to a place in the sun.
Also celebrating this week is a 54-year-old from Newport who called house in 49 balls and bagged herself £20,000 which should help out nicely during the Christmas season.
