| Taps Aff! |
 Another wee reminder that the new taps in the cloakrooms HAVE to be MANUALLY turned off by their levers. PLEASE CHECK THEM BEFORE YOU LEAVE THE LADIES ROOM. They do not automatically turn off! There have still been several incidents of hot water taps being left running with the subsequent waste ot water and power. Thank you.

| How to Improve your Bridge and have even more fun. |
 Ok, we've now got lots of learners attending classes, and quite a number of last year's classes are attending some of the events and competitions. Well done them. And they're sometimes doing rather well!  .
Now what about the regulars? Why not make this the year you give your bridge a spring clean by attending some different sessions. Monday Aggregate sessions, Wednesday (all sorts of competitions) and Friday Match Pointed sessions are available to everyone and all would welcome some new blood. Maybe it would give the regulars on these evenings a new lease of life too, and I'm sure they'd all make you very welcome.

| AND FOR THOSE WHO'VE COMPLETED SOME CLASSES - Now is the time! |
What to do with all the enthusiasm built up in the classes? Those who have finished either the first year of classes, or both years, would be very welcome to come along either to
(1) Thursday Mornings (10 am to 1 pm) for a very relaxed small, friendly session to find out what club bridge is like, and build up some experience and hopefully confidence. OR
if feeling a little more adventurous, to
(2) Friday afternoon session (1 pm to 4.30 pm) which is equally friendly but a little bit busier.
(3) Wednesday afternoon session (1 pm to 4.30 pm) also very friendly and not too busy but broader variety of players
Those who can't play during the day may try the
(4) Tuesday evening session (7 pm to 10.30 pm) which is certainly much busier, and with a wider range of players, but will also welcome your attendance.
When booking in to any session, please do let the person on the desk know you have just come from classes and aren't very experienced, and someone will then ensure you are looked after.
Go on, try it out and see what you think!
