We all know Bingo, don't we? It is a game of crossing off the numbers as they come up and calling 'House' or 'Bingo' if you get a line or a whole house.
Well, there is a lot more to the game than that.
You can play the UK or US versions of Bingo, the Irish Bingo, and for more than just a line of a whole house; that is just for starters.
If you have ever played bingo in the UK, whether in a seaside arcade, club, pub or bingo hall you will be familiar with my version of the game.
There are a number of different variations of how the game can be played, from a full house, line and full house to more unusual ones such as the sandwich or race course, and I offer them all. It is up to you.
Bingo lingo - love it or hate it? I can call out the numbers with or without it - the choice is yours.
So, eyes down for Kelly's eye and Top of the shop - or check your ticket for 1 and 90!
I doubt I have to tell you that the US version of bingo comes from the United States.
This bingo game is played on a square ticket, usually a five-by-five grid, with every square having a number - except the middle one.
The word BINGO appears on the left of the ticket, with one letter per row.
This means that numbers are called, giving the row and the number (for example, B40).
You can play for a line and a house.
Music bingo is like traditional bingo, either in UK or US versions.
Your bingo ticket has the answers to the music questions (the style of music is up to you, but usually it's hits from the 1950s to current times), usually the name of the song you are hearing or the performer. Cross off the answers as the music is randomly played.
Not even I know the order the music will be played in!
Usually, tickets are played for both a line and a full house.
A fun mix of music and bingo!
Quingo, taking the best of bingo and quizzes and adding them together.
Like quizzing and bingo? Why not try a game of Quingo and see how much fun a mixture of the two can be!
You play on a Quingo card (instead of numbers it has quiz question answers), all you need to do is cross off the correct answer to the questions as they are 'called' - if you have them. All of the questions are asked in a random order.
The winner is the first to fill in a line, a full house or any combination of all the possible ways of winning with bingo.
Picgo is bingo with pictures!
Wordingo is bingo with words.
A randomly chosen text will be read out, and all the tickets have a selection of the words on them. Cross them off as you hear them - don't get too caught up listening to the story you might miss your line or full house!
