| Christmas Party |
 Biggar Bridge Club held its annual Christmas lunch on Monday 5th December in the Elphinstone Hotel. Colin Young, Chairman, welcomed 34 members with a glass of Prosecco to mark the Club’s 25th anniversary. Michael MacKenzie then entertained those present with a humorous Bridge poem. After an excellent meal we played a few hands of Bridge followed by coffee and mincemeat pies and a quiz prepared by Steven Henderson. This year’s committee are shown with a welcome drink prior to eating.
