About Gala Brighton
Gala Bingo Brighton is a modern, purpose-built bingo hall and sits on the original site of the Kemptown railway station. A train built into the exterior offers a memorial to the site’s history.
Brighton Line Bingo Flyer
Close to the centre of Brighton, in the bustling Kemptown district of the city, Gala Brighton offers over 200 parking spaces and good public transport connections. There is a bar, diner and slot machines for you while you are waiting for a game to start or if you just fancy doing something different.
Everyone is welcome here, the bingo hall has disabled facilities and a hearing loop. With great value games and regular big events, the Brighton-based bingo hall makes everyone feel like a winner!
To this end I have been developing a list of 'number nicknames' that are used when calling out the numbers during play - e.g. 'number eight - garden gate'.
There are many different nicknames used for each number - some dating from WWII and even different ones for different branches of the armed forces, and even some modern ones - e.g. 'seventy-one' has changed recently from 'bang on a drum' to a more modern 'J-Lo's bum', in a reference to Jennifer Lopez's most famous asset.
With some of the older ones I am having trouble in tracing the origins, or even checking the accuracy of the purported origin.
I reproduce below some of the doubtful ones and would be grateful if anyone could throw any light upon the matter for me.
Here we go:
1 - Kelly's eye (anyone know the origin? Who was one-eyed Kelly,anyway?)
9 - Doctor's joy (navy term for purgative pill, it appears. Why?)
11 - Kelly's legs (same Kelly as number 1?)
30 - Dirty Gertie (does she exist or is this just rhyme?), because...
30 - Burlington Gertie (also used and is a reference to the ditty'Burlington Gertie from Bow')
42 - Winnie the Pooh (just rhyming?)
50 - Snow White's number (said to be 'five-oh, five-oh' - a mutationof 'Hi-Ho, Hi-Ho'?)
56 - Was she worth it? (5/6d - WWII going rate for the services of aPompey *** (Portsmouth lady of the night). Can anyone confirm this? - the origin, not the price ;-) See also 76
58 - Choo-choo Thomas (... the Tank Engine? why?)
59 - Brighton line (some say train fare from London to Brighton was5/9d during WWII; others say 59 was the engine number of the first 'Brighton Belle'?)
62 - To Waterloo (some say rail fare from Portsmouth to London duringWWII was 6/2d?)
73 - Queen B (just rhyming?)
75 - Big Daddy (why?)
76 - Seven 'n' six - was she worth it? (7/6d. - the price of amarriage licence during WWII - compare with 56 - almost the same)
80 - Gandhi's breakfast (anyone know? I know that 10 in the Navy issailor's breakfast - a rasher of bacon with an egg, so what could the
8 be?)
83 - Ethel's ear, or is it 'ere (why?)
I DO realize that the majority of these nicknames are not the most common, or usual, nickname for the respective number but these numbers ARE quoted in some sources and I AM trying to compile a fairly comprehensive list.
Any help would be appreciated
Many thanks
