Bridge Sayings
Bridge Sayings

Good Bridge etiquette means you greet opponents, praise both partner and opponents (well played), do not criticize (good try), do not make gratuitis comments (if you had bid this or led that), not gloat (we got 100%) and finally speak politely to your partner, opponents and especially the Director.

Vale - Barbara Kurosinski
Vale - Barbara Kurosinski

Barbara Kurosinski passed away after suffering a stroke on Friday 9th September. She was an early member of the Bridge Club when they played at the CWA rooms. Barbara was a quiet lady who had the most infectious laughter which lightened the mood in the room. Quite often she would end a conversation with the expression "Oh truely". Barbara will be missed by current partners Dawn Cameron and Ken Tierney as well as the rest of the Traralgon Bridge Club. Our condolences go out to Peter and family.
