You've probably heard a lot of people talk about the things that you have to do and avoid to live a long and happy life; we know some of them are obvious like not smoking, not drinking, exercising, eating healthy foods, etc. But according to Nellie Horseman there is another thing that you have to do if you want to live a long life- play Bingo!
Nellie Horseman recently turned a sprightly 102 years old. This ardent bingo gamer from Eastfield has celebrated her birthday this month proving yet again that bingo really does keep one young, both at heart and in mind. This amazing woman celebrated this important day with a bingo themed party at the local community hall. Many people attended this popular event; a local supermarket presented her with a lovely bouquet of flowers for the occasion, and a number of school children brought hand-made cards to celebrate this special day.
In some interviews, Nellie has credited bingo with adding many more years to her life than she once thought she would reach. June Tordoff, who has been friends with Nellie for the past 52 years said, "We all think it is fantastic that she has made it to 102. She is still doing well,"
