Last night was our weekly Lions Radio Bingo with a forced Loonie Jar worth 15000 being forced to go, and my wife Karen got caught up in the excitement! She spent the hour before it began looking for her “lucky” Bingo dauber.
“Lucky?”, says I.
“Yes I’ve had it for many, many years and I do better when I have it”
She then proceeded to tell me about when she was a young girl and how her mom would persuade her to come to Bingo with her.
When I was just starting out in radio I used to supplement my meagre income by calling Bingo at the Halifax forum. It was an educational experience.

I hate how Facebook will dig up older stories from time to time, especially when they cause me to get my hopes up, haha. Last night during Lions Radio Bingo, a post popped up that Ganong was bringing back their peppermints. Now I grew up with there being a dish of those never too far, especially when visiting some family friends and I have to say when they were discontinued, I felt sad. Yes there are other brands, but it just wasn’t the same, so when I saw this, the kid in me got excited.
