Another steady week at the club last week with Peter & John adding another entry into the 70% Club, on Wednesday, with a magnificent 79.17%.

Don’t forget any resolutions for the AGM need to be with the club next week – either to a Committee Member or e-mail the Club; also, nominations for24/25 committee need to be put on the club notice board.

A gentle reminder – if you have put your names down to play and cannot please let the Club know – email the Club or WhatsApp JSBSC – it is frustrating for the director waiting for you to sort out a movement – common courtesy.

It has been agreed that we will have a tournament on the day of Eric’s funeral – with a one-minute silence at 4pm. Previously we were informed that the family would be celebrating Eric’s life at the Parador – the venue has now changed. The service is still at Javea crematorium on Friday 26^th at 4pm now followed by a celebration at Dar Social Club – on the road to Jesus Pobre after the Ermita supermarket and before Le Gourmand.

News from some of our members – Maureen Guy is recovering well from her knee operation but in her own words – “It’s a slow process”. Hopefully we will see her back at the club soon. Also, have heard from Lyn Griffin – her and Martin have left Spain and moving to a small village outside of Norwich close to her daughter. We wish them all the best and think Lyn for her time on the Committee.

A sheet is up for signing for the Quiz on the 11^th of May – a few tables still available – Colin once again is our Quiz Master.

If you have any signs of a cold or a cough, please stay away from the Club. Also, we would remind you to wear another layer or two at the club during this cold spell.
