WE’VE all been there...

You’re waiting on one number. You’re still waiting.

But for two lucky Borderers they didn’t have to wait too long as they both scooped huge jackpots in excess of £20,000.

Margaret Houston and Kathleen Johnson have both won big at the Pavilion Club.

And bosses at the Galashiels bingo hall believe this January has been their most successful month ever for prize winning.

Owner Ryann Stisi told the Border Telegraph: “What a start to 2015.

“We were absolutely thrilled to have a big cash winner earlier this month but to have a second in the space of just two weeks is fantastic.

“As a local family-owned business we are very proud to be known for being such a friendly club and looking after our members here in the Borders is hugely important to us. “It is brilliant that these big prizes have been won in our club and we would like to wholeheartedly congratulate our lucky Borders winners” The Market Street bingo hall attracts players from all over the Borders.

And January’s double jackpot win is likely to attract even more.

Kathleen scooped the National Cash Game prize at the start of the month - collecting a cheque for just under £20,300.

She told us: “I just couldn’t believe it when my numbers came up, it was brilliant.

“I am absolutely delighted to have won such a big prize and will certainly be putting it to very good use.” A fortnight later Margaret went even better with her win - collecting a cheque for almost £22,220 - in the same link-up game.
