I first visited this bingo hall about 18 years ago and won £85. Beginners luck! Having been back to Pitsea gala recently after going to the Basildon Gala it is so small, which in turn means less people and much less prize money. When I was last in there a couple of months ago it was so emply, i'm surprised it is still a viable concern. This was a lunchtime, perhaps the evenings are better. The staff were all nice and friendly and the caller was clear. I would be surprised if I went back to the hall again. There no comparison with the Basildon experience. read more
