A young girl from Donegal leaves home to find
work among the bright lights of London. Comes home 6
months later and steps out of a taxi, wearing a
full-length mink coat. "Begorrah, Colleen" says her
mother "'Tis surely a lovely coat yer wearin' -- an'
it looks so expensive. Where did ye get that?"
Colleen replies, "Sure now, and I won it at the
bingo. Don't they have grand prizes in London."

When the weekend's over, Colleen returns to
the bright lights, but she's back to visit her Mom a
few months later. This time when she steps out of
the taxi, she's wearing a beautiful gold wristwatch
and a large diamond ring. (Same exchange with Mom --
same answer "Won it at bingo.")

Then Colleen returns to the bright lights once again.

A few months later, she's back again. And this
time she's sporting an emerald and diamond necklace
with matching bracelet and earrings. She hands her
mother 1,000 pounds and explains that she won it all
at the bingo. Then she asks her Mom to run her a
bath as she needs to freshen up. Her Mom draws the
bath while Colleen gets undressed in her bedroom,
but when she gets to the bathroom, there's only a
quarter inch of hot water in the tub. Colleen, a wee
bit peeved at her Mom being so cheap with the hot
water after being given 1,000 pounds, calls
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'" replies her Mom.
"But we don't want yegettin' yer bingo ticket wet now, do we?"
