A Conversation for Bingo Calling For Beginners
Calling nicknames

Nice article. It's good to have some of the terms explained, although why no 69? Possibly because some of it's nicknames aren't suitable for a family site. Another you often hear is "just my age" at some unlikely low number, often 16.
However, one query - I don't think I've ever heard a caller say "all the twos, two little ducks, twenty-two." In that and most other calls with nicknames, either the first or last bit is dropped. Admittedly I haven't been to bingo much and it's always been relatively informal.
