Last week some of ChitChat Bingo’s players went to see The X Factor live auditions in Birmingham. As you’ll read and see from their pics they had an absolutely fantastic time!

mazz78 and friend went along and said:
we had a lovely day it was absolutely fantastic tyvm for the opportunity to go to the auditions xxxx
mazz78 it is our absolute pleasure!

lollies wanted to say:
i would like to thank you and st minver and of course ialwayssmile for allowing me to go and watch The X Factor auditions i had a great time and enjoyed it
lollies we are so pleased you had a fab time and how exciting to see the Judges!

lassieshaddo also had a couple of tickets and…
had a fabulous time and it was really really good. We ended up being about 5 rows back just behind the Judges so pretty good view. My friend Rosie said to say a big big thank you also as she had a fabulous day out.
lassieshaddo we only wish we were there too!

mattswain has a little tip to offer you aswell!
Although it was a raining, we both had a wonderful time and Laura said it really made her birthday weekend so thanks again for the tickets.
The seats were excellent (five rows back from directly behind the judges!) and the poor people up in the gods were booing all of us vips in the front – we didn’t mind as we were relatively dry compared to them! The other 3000 members of the audience had to queue outside for about 4 hours to get in.
The acts ranged from outstanding to awful – watch out for Cher & Remington at bootcamp is all I can say, and don’t miss the ‘High Street Boys’ from Rugby – an absolute classic!
mattswain we’re so glad you had a great time and we’ll definitely watch out for Cher & Remington!

How much do you love your Mum? Why is she so special?
Post a note in the ‘leave a response’ area of this blog and tell me about your Mum, I’d love to hear about her and your memories as you’ve grown up.
My Mum really had her work cut out with me as you can imagine! Keeping me out of trouble was her biggest challenge!!
Here I give you my Mother’s Day rhyme:
I want to thank her, well it is about time
She loves me more than the earth
I hope she knows what she’s really worth
She sings a song then ‘dee dee dees’
Forgotten the words Mum? It doesn’t bother me
It’s Terry Wogan who’s to blame
Since Radio 2 went, it’s just not the same
Wedding Day nerves, Mum you’re worse than me
I’m letting that skirt down, I can’t have it above my knee!
Stand in a pliet the photographer said
Not my mum, oh no, that’s going way above her head
I finally tell her all the truths, about those naughty teenage years
She just say’s ‘oh our Josie you are a one’
But I think we both know now, those days are long gone!
Look out for our Chit Chat Bingo Mother’s Day promotion, between the 3rd and 9th of March, we’ve got some fabulous treats lined up for some very special Mums!!
Club Gold winner mumof3boyz received the first of our very special X Factor tour tickets and enjoyed a great VIP night out at the Birmingham show. An invitation to meet the stars of the show was the start of a fantastic evening of entertainment and fun…..
We arrived at the LG arena with our VIP meet and greet letter and were rushed through to a big warehouse where we all stood in a circle. The stars came in, JEdward literally back flipped and cart wheeled in, followed closely by Lloyd Daniels, Joe McElderry, Lucie, Jamie, Danyl, Stacey and Ollie. The stars all walked around and spent a few minutes with each of us. What completely awesome people, nothing was too much trouble!! Joe was shaking when he met everyone, and Stacey is lovely! Really down to earth!
The highlight of my night however was when Danyl (who was always my favourite) gave me a big kiss and hug! I was floating on air for the rest of the night!!
The show itself was awesome, a great mixture of songs and theatrics all night. The best performers had to be Ollie and Danyl (hubby would disagree, he preferred Lucie!!) but all of the stars were absolutelygreat!
I have some fab pictures to treasure and fantastic memories. Thank you from the bottom of my heart to Josie and Chit Chat Bingo!
I am still on a high!
Love and hugs x

‘HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU ALL ’
What a fabulous time we all had on Chit Chat Bingo VIP nights out in November.

'Here Comes the Girls' Sheffield
Sheffield was the first venue, with a trip for Club Gold and Diamond members from the North West of England, to enjoy an evening with Lulu, Shaka Khan and Anastasia at the ‘Here Comes the Girls’ concert. VIP Manager, Josie entertained her guests, including mrsb, tipps90, clairelouxxx, linghigh and mumof3boyz, with a fun filled night in the City. Friendships born in Chat were sealed over a few drinks and further get together’s are already planned for the New Year.

Sheffield VIP night out!
‘So nice meeting all the girls, putting faces to names. We really had a mad time, I’m still recovering’. (mrsb)

After show drinks!!
Next on to the South of England, as the Chit Chat VIP road show gained momentum for a second night out on the tiles, to see ‘The Calendar Girls’ show in London. What great people you VIP’s really are; along with beaniebabe, lesleym54, joward and crazyfool2109, we had a lovely evening of dining out and performance.

amilucky159 with Aunty Trisha!
Happy 30th Birthday to Chit Chat Bingo VIP amilucky159 with lots of love from your sister drwho07.
’she was 30 on the 1st november and we threw a fancy dress Halloween birthday party for her…shame really that she couldn’t have a drink to celebrate as she’s been sick in hospital, but she has some good tablets from the doctor and thankfully is now on the mend’
’she loves playing on the Chit Chat Bingo site and is always trying to get the rest of the family to join up and seems to be at her happiest while she’s online playing’
Happy Birthday too from Josie and the VIP team at Chit Chat Bingo…you’re birthday pressie is in your account now! x

Mum at the Halloween party!!

Has hhazel got what it takes?
Just wanted to say a big thank you for the great evening out we had.
From the moment we arrived, we knew we were in for a great evening. As we were escorted to the Talk Talk VIP hospitality suite we brushed shoulders with JLS. We were given free drinks, and there was a plentiful buffet. Then it was time to put on our VIP passes and go down to the studio, the atmosphere was electric.
We had been asked to arrive early as there would be a mystery guest, and I have to say how ironic that it was Shakira (CM hips will know what I mean). Shakira is unable to perform live on 15th November so we were lucky enough to see her perform as well.
There was a comedian/host to entertain us whilst we waited for the live show, and he was hilarious. We were asked to clap, cheer and make lots of noise, but none of us needed any encouraging. When the show started everyone just went mad. Bon Jovi were awesome, JLS were fantastic, and the sing off between Loyd and Rachel was so tense.
We had a truly fantastic evening, one that we will remember for a long time.
Thank you so much Chit Chat for such a wonderful experience.

The Blushing Bride mollymoo27
What a fabulous Wedding Day for VIP mish45’s Chit Chat family. In August mollymoo27 wed her sweetheart Steve. Feeling like a princess she arrived at church in style in the wonderful stretch limo her lovely mum had wished for from Chit Chat.
Mum and daughter felt amazing after their makeover treat for the special day courtesy of Chit Chat. Brother Matthew, Beetles89 acting as usher completes the happy family.
….from me to you, mollymoo champers is on ice especially for the blushing bride as she reaches Club Gold VIP status at Chit Chat Bingo. Join me in raising a glass to wish them lots of luck as they start married life together.
