BINGO NIGHT WITH A PLOT TWIST… 👀🤪 Tonight at 7.30pm it’s BINGO TIME – but not as you know it… Our usual bingo king DJ Taxi Mike is poorly 🤒 so stepping into the spotlight is… CLARE! Yes, the landlady herself is calling the numbers and she’s already sweating more than the jackpot winner last week 😂 ⚠️ Food served until 7pm ONLY – she can’t be flipping burgers while shouting “Number 10, Boris’s den!” unless we want absolute carnage 🤣 Come down for: 💥 A laugh 💥 A chance to win big 💥 Clare’s first ever bingo-caller performance (pray for her) Eyes down at 7.30pm – pack the place and give her a night she won’t forget! #TurnpikeBingo #BingoNight #Middlewich #SupportYourLocal #ClareOnCalls #BeKind #PubFun #JackpotHunting #EyesDown730
