Dear 888ladies and 888gents

If you are reading this, you are definitely going to experience meeting one of the most deserving 888ladies! Lynne74 picked up £8,888 on Friday and had NOT checked her account since! She did not know that £8,888 was in there waiting for her, she did not know that her fellow 888ladies had wishes many, many congratulations on the 888ladies online bingo fan page on Facebook, she was innocent and clueless about the win, that is until she spoke to…..the Agent.

It had been quite an ordeal to get in touch with lynne74, from East Lothian, Scotland. Nice to see one of our beloved Scottish lassies win the £8,888 for a change! But just 10 minutes ago I did and this is what happened!

Agent: Hello, is that lynne74?

lynne74: Yes…..

Agent: This is Agent008 from 888ladies, how are you?

lynne74: Fine thanks.

Agent008: Do you know why I’m calling?

lynne74: No….

Agent008: Are you sitting down?

lynne74: Yes….

Agent008: You won, eight thousand, eight hund….

lynne74: (interrupted by inaudible screams…then after a few seconds calms down..) How do I know this isn’t a wind up?

Aget008: What do you want to know? I am the Agent, I can tell you anything you want to know.

lynne74: What’s my date of birth?

Agent008: (Agent tells her and is kept secret as lynne74 is a lady. Then Agent reels off lynne’s address…)

lynne74: (Inaudible screams REALLY get going)

Lynne74, through a mixture of ‘Jesus’ and ‘I can’t believe it!’,  starts to calm down.

Agent008: Congratulations!!

lynne74: Thank you, thank you, you don’t what this means to me!!

Agent008: OK, tell me, what does it mean to you?

lynne74: One of my sons is autistic and his dream is to go and swim with the dolphins in Florida, it didn’t look like it would be possible, but now! WOW!

Agent008: Yes! That’s fantastic lynne, so pleased for you!

lynne74: My other wee son who is seven is a real gem with his brother and misses out a lot because of this, so he deserves this so much too. So, if we have won, this is what we are going to do.

Agent008: There is no ‘if’, you HAVE won £8,888! You are going to Florida!

lynne74: (Screams again!) Oh thank you 888ladies, if you were here I would kiss you!!

Agent008: Thank you, but you will have to kiss whoever is there instead!

lynne74: My son is the only one with me.

Agent008: Then kiss him then! LOL!

Agent008: Where have you been? You are hard to get hold of!

lynne74: It’s been mad! I am the secretary of a new autistic charity, we have a big opening tonight, oh I can’t go after this….Oh, I have to, I have organised the raffle!

Agent008: Go, you will have a great time. By the way, how many tickets for the £8,888 did you buy?

lynne74: I maxed out! I always max out, give myself the best chance of winning!

Agent008: Fantastic! Congratulations again! Well done, everyone congratulated you on Facebook already, go and take a look, if you still have any doubts that this is a wind up.

lynne74: No, I don’t but thank you Agent, thank you 888ladies, this means so much to me! I hadn’t won much with you before so I opened account with another site but after this, I am only playing with 888ladies! But I need to go home now and check my account and Facebook, I will be there in 5 minutes, speak to you all online!!

There you go, a roller coaster of emotions and I am sure you would agree, a worthy winner!

Also, you will see a picture of lynne74 very soon as she has promised me a photograph! So look forward to that!

So once more, CONGRATULATIONS LYNNE74 – OUR LATEST £8,888AIRE!

Dear 888ladies and 888gents

All put your dabbers down and put your hands together for our very own 888ladies Twitterer, Claregat. She, along with some other great roomies, whose names you can read below, followed my instructions on 888ladies’ Twitter and were waiting for me at 4pm yesterday in Studio 75 with the phrase, “Don’t put Agent in the Corner”, in order to celebrate 888ladies’ chick flick day!

Jencat68, Lisankeith, nanasusie & rubyrips narrowly miss out on the Special Prize!!

The Prize that Claregat earned was a fantastic £25 to spend at Marks & Spencer just for joining Twitter at  www.twitter.com and then following 888ladies  and yours truly, Agent008, which can be found when searching on Twitter for ‘bingo888ladies’ and ‘agent008ladies’, respectively.

This was Claregat’s reaction, she hadn’t thought of receiving anything THAT big!

Well, £25 to spend at M & S is quite a change from a handful of LPs, although I know how valuable they all are to you to play your beloved 888ladies bingo! However, there will be MORE, MORE & MORE tasks like this for MORE, MORE & MORE HIGH STREET VOUCHERS!

So join Twitter TODAY and follow bingo888ladies and Agent008ladies!

PS If you have any questions, please let me know and I will help you as much as possible, you are all trainee 888ladies Agents after all!

Dear 888ladies and 888gents

It appears that you Roomies have been busy!! Trying to make sense of a TERRIBLE, WHAT FELT LIKE AN ETERNITY, 4 DAYS, when the 888ladies Blog was down…..and voting in our great Poll to find out which is the 888ladies’  FAVOURITE Chick Flick!

There were well over 60 roomies who had a guess what in fact happened to the blog and some were scarily close, although the real reason was a bit more boring than, ‘aliens, wild parties, CH Josh…’ etc’

The Best One as judged by me was this effort from Chickebabe, who earned herself 5,000LPs – a fiver’s worth of 888ladies Bingo! The runners up who got 2,000LPs were fitfee65, Sweetbabyroey, poorme, terrigold & tonkay! All you other great roomies got 1,000LPs for your trouble and just a note, it was so hard to choose and took me a long time to choose. (Chickebabe being an Aussie and losing the Ashes this summer, has enough problems so I felt sorry for her… ) Actually, it is a great effort!

I heard there was a secret plan to sabbotage the blog by all the powers to be!!! Too many Lp’s were being given away and there was only one way to stop the agent…. shut down the blog and watch all the 888 ladies and agent sweat. Ahah alas it backfired.. the esteemed agent 008 is has a double life as an IT engineer!!! Yay crow all the 888 ladies, not only did he fix the blog but is giving away extra Lp’s to make up for the lost days  Oh agent 008 you are my hero. lol

(All characters and events in this reason do not exist and an similarity to persons living or dead is purely coincidental).

The winner of the the poll yesterday for 888ladies’ Favourite Chick Flick got a massive 38% of the 152 votes cast and earned everyone who voted for ‘DIRTY DANCING’, 2,000LPs IF they left their alias with their choice. Everyone else got 1,000LPs simply for voting. The late, talented heart-throb, Patrick Swayze’s films captured almost 60% of the total votes cast, he will be badly missed. RIP.

All the LPs have been credited, so GO and play your favourite bingo games on your favourite site, 888ladies!!!

Look out for me, the Agent, and later on, the Sweet Chocolady, for more fun and frolics, LPs and other great prizes!!
