| BRIDGE BRAIN TEASERS |
With the continuing lockdown we know that many of you are feeling the loss of our weekly games. We therefore thought you may wish to keep the grey cells ticking over. Fakenham Bridge Club are proposing the following idea: Each week they will send out a number of Bridge problems relating to bidding or play and the solutions will be sent the following week. A fund at the QEH for the virus fight has been set up. So if you would like to take part in the exercise you make a donation to www.justgiving.com/QEHCovid19Support and then send an email to r.harvest41@gmail.com to say so and he will then send you the first set of problems ( Some easy, some not so easy ).
