A LUCKY bingo player from Winsford is sailing off into the sunset in style after winning a Caribbean cruise worth more than £5,000 at Mecca Bingo.

Jennifer Gordon won the prize during Mecca Crewe’s themed evening and is planning to jet off with the whole family so they can all enjoy some sun, sea and sand together.

Jennifer said: “I couldn’t believe that I had won such a fantastic prize. I was ecstatic when I realised I had won and it has only now sunk in.

“I can finally take my family on a holiday of a lifetime, something that wouldn’t be possible without Mecca. It just shows that to get that winning feeling, you have to be in it to win it – you never know when you’ll strike it lucky.”

A frequent bingo player at the Crewe club for more than five years, the prize is the largest won by Jennifer.

Tony Beverly, club manager at Mecca Crewe, added: “At Mecca, we’re always looking to reward winners with fun and adventurous prizes. We couldn’t be happier for Jennifer as we’ve gotten to know her over the years, she definitely deserves a holiday.

“There is nothing quite like the look on someone’s face when they have realised they’ve won a prize of a lifetime.”
