Gala Bingo Halls
At Gala Bingo, we've got some top events in the pipeline. If you're into free bingo, dinner and drinks with friends and the opportunity to win cash prizes, you'll love our upcoming Bristol Fishponds bingo night events. Get the dates in your diary! Gala bingo is just outside stafford town centre, it would only take a 15-20 min walk but there are busses that frequently go past and the bus stops right outside the retail park. Ive never played bingo, so I cant compare it to any other bingo halls but the place is clean & tidy and the staff are friendly.
WHY CHOOSE A RIVER CRUISE?
For an intimate, relaxing and unforgettable travel experience, river cruising is hard to beat. As you sail at a pleasingly easy pace you’recocooned in comfort. This is a great way to see a lot of different places in a short amount of time without having to worry about arrangingtransport yourself, or even unpacking your suitcase more than once. The incredible staff and crew really go above and beyond to makeyour experience a special one. A river cruise includes transportation to and through the country, or countries, on your chosen route; but alsotravelling with you every day, a ‘floating hotel’ with a lounge, bar and restaurant, outdoor space and evening entertainment, all of which areonly a short walk from your en-suite cabin door. Think of it as a luxury hotel on the river.
Join our cruise along Dutch waterways and visit the spring gardens at Keukenhof, where more than 8 million tulips, daffodils and hyacinths are in full bloom. The landscape is immaculate, with shimmering lakes, mature trees and wonderful works of art. It’s simply breath-taking.
