People Watch



Asignment 3


For this me and a few of my fellow class mate wen to the bingo and participated it wierd and wonderful rituals that involved many different coloured dabber.

At the begining of the night out at the bingo we were seperated from the normal everyday bingo players to sign up. This was friendly and warm as the person joining us to this old folks haven use our first name as if we were old friends on an long awaited vistit,when entering into wat could be described as a scene from an old folks home with every body conforming to a ganeric dress code well apart from us.

The games were hard to get to grips with and when u eventually came round to nowing what you were doing it was over, i found it hard to keep up with the numbers being read out however i later noticed an elderly woman reading a glossy magizine, glossy magizine while carring on her game. There was always a collective si when someone shouted house wishing for them to be wrong and to have another attemp on the prize money.

As i went to the toilet i realised the advertising and how sexist there veiws still are, in the gents toilet there were posters of females playing bingo and no men.


Overall i really enjoyed my nite out at the bingo and would do it again ;)
