Hugh Gross - a memory


Hugh could outwardly appear to be a grumpy old man but inside there was kindness and an amazing dry sense of humour. He had some serious health problems for many years but he never talked about them or complained.

Hugh started his career working for BT but diversified into opening very successful health food shops - as a sideline he provided the most delicious teas for Berks and Bucks bridge events.

Apart from bridge, Hugh's great passion was football, but his bridge was far more successful than the football clubs he supported - Wycombe Wanderers when they were bottom of division 2 and, more recently, Frome Town.

I will remember Hugh as a very kind and loyal friend.

A note on our session labels

Whereas in the past we've categorised our sessions with reference to NGS grades, we're now focusing more on the feel of the session.

Relaxed   (formerly 9 HIGH and Improvers): the name says it all!
Social   A bit more challenging than Relaxed. This is suitable for most of our members.
Open  A bit more challenging than Social

While members are free to attend whatever sessions they find suit them, all members are actively invited to play in our Social Pairs at the club.

Well played!
