It was a full house at this weeks Bingo in the Coach House. As ever the 'Bingo Gods' favoured the first timers, with Jaia, George, Judy and Lauren all scooping prizes in the main game on their first outing! Fortune also favours the brave as Fiona brought in her table after a sumptious Thai meal and rounded the night off with a win on the Big Cash £1 Golden Ticket round, with Jean taking the ultimate prize of £15! A new call was introduced this week in loving memory of Renee, our Bingo Queen..."All the 2's, 22, here's to you our Renee!" (Renee being born in 1922) The '22 ball appeared in every game which gave us 4 chances to raise our glasses to her, and we will forever more!

Just because it was Christmas week, our regular Bingo players were not resting on their laurels!

A return of Bingo to The Swan saw our first simultaneous live and virtual event.

Once a few IT issues had been resolved the games began with many winners on the night including Vernon, Amjad, Erin, Trudy, Louise, Jane and Tony. The winner of the full house in our final game was Katie Eleftheriou who was presented with a beautiful swan motif notebook.

The rules are pretty simple yet traditional when we are playing face-to-face in the pub:

• It is a 90-ball game.
• We have 3-game bingo books.
• It's 75p a card, so £2.25 for the three games.
• Players can choose to play anything between 1 and 6 cards, that's what they will play for the night.
• Maximum is £9 for 6-cards in a game.
• We play three games and then a special one at the end.
• Each game we will play for a line and then for the house.
• Winners of each will receive a prize.
• The last game is “The Big Cash Game' which costs £1, one card only.
• The Bingo Caller's decision is final.
• Card payment is preferred although we will take cash.
• Dobbers will be available on loan.
• Any proceeds remaining from playing will go to the restoration funds for The Swan.
• There will be a short break between games to allow you to recharge your glass.

If you are coming along, please can you familiarise yourself with our covid guidelines - thank you.

During the various Covid Lockdown periods during 2020 and 21, we started Online Bingo which proved to be very popular. We very quickly built a group of regular players. Every second Wednesday they would joing us on Zoom and play. Our compere was Richard Allen who quickly built up a reputation as an excellent caller.

Each night we plaid for a line or a grid/card, slowly building it up to two and then three cards. Winning meant inclusion on The Swan cruise, which so far still hasn't departed still due to Covid restrictions. Games were free but we did encourage a small donation to help pay the bills and keep renovation work going whilst the pub was physically shut. A huge thanks to all those who donated, very much appreciated.

Photos and names of our online winners can be found on our Online Events page.These took place during the various lockdowns that we found ourselves placed under to try and control Covid. In all we had seventeen online games spanning almost a year. We thank The Friends of The Swan who organised and supported this activity.

The Swan got an excellent reputation from this activity such that we hired Richard out to companies who were doing team building excercises to keep morale up during Lockdown. Please note that we have left the instructions to hold an online bingo event below. We can furnish more information should you wish to hold one yourself or need our assistance. Good luck!
