Here at Bingo Hideout, we are here to inform, and so here
is part 2 of our informative bingo calls run-down (read
Part
One ). Here we are studying numbers 31 to 60, and we have included as
many explanations as possible for the, sometimes obscure, rhymes. You may
not find some of the calls you’re familiar with if you play a lot of
online bingo as some sites use their own bingo lingo, but we hope to have
covered all the most popular calls for anyone who’s not familiar with
the rhymes.
