Now in regards to giving her 25.00, Kate your finances never seem to be stable so whilst it was very kind of you to give her that money, can you in all honesty afford to? You need to cut your cloth and manage your own finances, and let others manage theirs x Just my opinion of course

Actually you make a good point about alcohol, I wonder if the lady had been drinking quite a bit. I just assumed everyone was sober.

If booze wasn't the reason ,I'm not sure about giving bingo lady a second chance...what if this happens again ?.plus she got Kate barred from a pub. I mean it's not the end of the world... there's other pubs I assume, but I'd be annoyed if someone I thought was my friend got me barred from a place i like to go regularly.

I wonder if she feels bad ,hence her ringing Kate up .


Whether the lady is manipulative, has mental issues or has early on set dementia.... Who knows. If she's ever let back into the group of friends... I'd be very wary of her in future.
