| Covid Omicron Variant |
Following the discovery of the Omicron variant of the Coronavirus in Chelmsford and elsewhere the Club Committee has decided that F2F bridge should continue at the Club, but that all attendees - in addition to following the usual hand-sanitisation procedures - should be STRONGLY ENCOURAGED either to WEAR MASKS or to SELF-TEST at home prior to the sessions.
While this is not yet a government instruction, we feel that in this period of uncertainty while the effects of the latest variant are under close scrutiny, it is a prudent and proportionate response which we hope will make all attendees feel less exposed to the risk of infection. The situation will be kept under review.

| Welcome to the Mayflower Bridge Club Website. |
Mayflower Bridge Club meets on a Tuesday Night at Mountnessing Village Hall @7.20. A very sociable club that attracts an excellent standard of players.
There are generally 8-10 tables of hard fought but friendly bridge all under the auspices of the EBU. Visitors always welcome.

| Club Ethos |
I play on a Bridge website playing teams and happened upon a Swedish Team's logo, fortunately in English:
Play Fair
Play for Fun
Play for Knowledge
Play among Friends
Couldn't have said it better - so its now on the page heading!

| Billericay Mayflower History |
 Peter Williamson has very kindly put together the history of the club. Peter is one of the last playing founders of the original club.
Click on this box and have a read, there are some lovely pictures which probably date from the seventies complete with dodgy moustaches, crevats and a mean, moody and magnificent Peter.
If you have any pictures of Mayflower Bridge or the people who have played here please send them to John@johnmccoy.co.uk and get them saved for posterity before they are lost like tears in the rain!

| Seeking a Partner |
 After years of sterling service Carol McCue is stepping down from the find a partner role - very many thanks to her!
Going forward there are alternatives - the website has a facility for you to register the dates when you would like to find a partner. You will have to register in the members area first - this is very straightforward. The other method is to contact me (John McCoy) and I will attempt to find a partner. The former method is best for the more longer term and the latter when your partner cries off at short notice with a broken eyelash or man flu! I can be contacted on 07474 267160 or john@johnmccoy.co.uk - click here to send an email. During the day text messages/email are probably the best way of contact as sadly I am still working.
There are I'm sure people that don't come through lack of a partner or they may not wish to play regularly. If you are aware of somebody let me know their names and I will contact them and see if we can get them back playing or as an occasional last minute stand in.
John
