| Welcome |
 Welcome! Blewbury Bridge Club plays face-to-face in the Vale Room at Blewbury Village Hall on Tuesdays (7:30 pm) and sometimes a Social Duplicate Bridge evening on Fridays (currently suspended). We also play online on RealBridge on Thursdays (7:00 pm). Please be ready ten minutes before the start time! Visitors are warmly encouraged.
We also run Funbridge sessions on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. Please contact the Chairman for further details.
This year's Oxfordshire County Pairs competition has started! To qualify, you just need to score 50%+ in a club duplicate in any of the weeks starting on 17 November, 1 December or 5 January. (It also has a 9-high heat.)
NOTE: our face-to-face Tuesdays are on Christmas break, with the next session being on Tuesday 6th January. Have a restful Christmas and Happy New Year!

| REALBRIDGE WITH WANTAGE BRIDGE CLUB |
Our Thursday online sessions are now on Realbridge every fortnight, alternating with Wantage Bridge Club. Wantage's website will also have the RealBridge log-in link, either here or here. (Effectively, they're joint events.) If you play, we'll need your name and EBU number. Send to Dermot Paddon at djmp99@gmail.com.
If you play in Wantage's sessions, they'll need your details too.

| ONLINE PAYMENTS |
For Blewbury Bridge Club sessions (both face-to-face and on Realbridge), payments should be made directly to the Club’s bank account. You don't need to pay separately for each session, but can instead pay a lump sum (say £5, £10 or £20 for instance) as a credit which will gradually deplete as you play sessions.
Table money will be £1.50 per Thursday RealBridge session and £2.50 per face-to-face session (both Tuesdays and Fridays). Combined payments are no problem. We'll monitor funds received against sessions paid regularly.
The club's bank account details are as follows
- Account name : Blewbury Bridge Club
- Sort Code : 40 19 35
- Account number : 21305107
You'll need a reference with the payment that identifies who you are and the purpose of the payment, to distinguish from receipts from other Members or from yourself for other purposes (e.g. subscriptions). In the 'reference' line of your BACS transfer, please enter the following
- First two characters: TM
- Next six characters: Membership number – your EBU number
- Final characters: Your surname (or as many letters at the start of your surname that will fit in the remainder of the bank’s reference)
Please leave spaces between these three pieces of information.
Example: TM 405145 Allen will be the reference for me.
If making transfers from the same bank account to cover more than one member, please make separate transfers with each member's number reference and surname.
If anyone can't use this payment method, please contact the Chairman and we'll make alternative arrangements.
