Sad News

We are sad to announce that Joy Foxall, who some will remember, passed away last Monday.

Joy was a member for many years, regularly playing aggregate Chicago on Tuesday evenings until she was unable to continue due to ill health and thus discontinued her membership several years ago.

The Funeral will be at at Basingstoke Crematorium  on Monday 31st October at12.30 pm

How to handle a hesitation

If you make a bid after your partner has hesitated and then passed, you need to be able to justify it. It’s no good protesting: “I was always going to bid that!” The fact of the hesitation means you are now in a position where what you might have thought of bidding becomes much more difficult for you ethically, as you are sure your partner has something useful in his hand that you didn’t know about before. If you really were always going to make the bid, then go on and bid it, but don’t be in any way upset when your opponents reserve their rights and eventually call the director. He may rule in your favour. 

Read Helen's article in the February newsletter for more reasons and explanation on hesitating and asking questions.
