IRISH BINGO
A young girl from Donegal left home to find work in the bright lights of London. She came home six months later and stepped out of a taxi wearing a full-length mink coat.
"Begorrah, Colleen," - said her mother. "Tis a lovely soft coat yer wearin' an' it looks so expensive. Where did ye get that?"
Colleen replied:
"Sure now, I won it at the bingo. Don't they have wonderful prizes in London?"
When the weekend was over, Colleen returned to the bright lights, but she was back to visit her mom a few months later. This time, when she stepped out of the taxi, she was wearing a beautiful gold wristwatch and a large diamond ring.
Same exchange with Mom............same "Won it at bingo!"
Then Colleen returned to the bright lights again. A few months later, she was back again. And this time she was sporting a beautiful emerald diamond necklace with matching bracelet and earrings. She handed her mother 1,000 pounds and explained that she won it all in bingo. Then she asked Mom to run her a bath, as she needed to freshen up.
Her Mom drew the bath while Colleen got undressed in her bedroom, but when she got to the washroom, there was only a quarter inch of hot water in the bathtub. Colleen, a wee bit peeved at her Mom being so cheap with the hot water after being handed 1,000 pounds, called downstairs:
"Mom! Sure now didn't I ask you to run me a bath? There's only a quarter inch of water in the tub!"
"Indade there is, me darlin"  - replied her Mom - "but we don't want ye gettin' yer bingo card wet now, do we?"

LOTTERY
A woman got home, screeched her car into the driveway, ran into the house, slammed the door and shouted at the top of her lungs:
"Honey, pack your bags. I won the lottery!"
The husband said:
“Oh my God! What should I pack, beach stuff, or mountain stuff?"
"Doesn't matter," – she said. "Just get out!”
