| DAVE CAIRNS |
Dave Cairns, one of the Club’s characters and very much a presence at the table, has passed away.
He had been a member seemingly back as far as the year dot and represented HBC numerous times.
An excellent player and tactician of the game he regularly did well especially with his regular partners Sue Peters and Reg Underwood who always referred to him as David during discussions on how the play might have gone.
The cigarette butt end collector just outside the front door was put up just for him and used between rounds as he enjoyed another quick ciggy break.

| SHIRLEY PURVIS |
We have just heard of the death of Shirley Purvis.
Always with a smile she was a very keen player and managed to play without using a single convention.
