Gambling mad here - you'll be right !

Mind you, not sure if they play it....

One thing that I haven't noticed that much is men with the side-sweep hairstyle - and that is deffo needed for a good game of bingo

I wouldnt have a clue. Have no interest in it. But i dont recall ever hearing of any worth going to.
I would reckon though, if you had enough money to open a place like the one in London and offered ridiculously high prize money, you get the gambling mad Aussies stampeding in the doors.
The place in London had a maximum capacity of something like 3,000 people (according to my MIL)
