Another busy week at the club last week with four days of tournaments including social bridge on Thursday, and then our quiz evening on Saturday with seven teams competing. Many thanks to Len our quiz master, and his wife, Margaret for organising a very challenging evening. Results of the evening are below, and pictures now available under "Photos Social".
Our Remembrance Tournament this Wednesday is fully booked – entrance is €8/person which includes cava and tapas afterwards. Our clubhouse has been decorated for the occasion – many thanks to Audrey & Bill for doing it this weekend. We have invited a few guests to come afterwards to join us.
Sign-up sheets are now up for our Christmas Tournament on Friday 4th December – please note priority will be given to our members before guests. There is also a sign up-sheet for guests who wish to attend in the evening. We will be running a Christmas Lottery with lovely festive hampers as prizes – we will start selling this next week. Entrance will be €8/person for tournament and tapas – guest will be €4.
Martin Webb is looking to organise a Christmas Bridge Break at Sol y Mar hotel at Calpe – if you are interested in this event, please email the club or talk to Martin. An email has been sent to Members with details – price & dates.
Javea Computer Club Card Making Group are now selling homemade Christmas cards and decorations – please ensure you put the money in the appropriate cash box.
We will be introducing tokens for table money entrance this coming week – bags of 10 =€40, this was requested at the AGM.
Unfortunately, it is the time of the year where members are returning to their other homes – please help the Committee as best you can. Thanks already to Allan E & Len S who have taken on the challenge of the dealing. Last week we welcomed back Inge and Ann Phillips, and also welcomed a new returned member, Chris Grant.
Our thoughts are with a number of our members who are recovering from illness – Jackie Evans from bronchitis and have just heard Jutta has had another fall – tore a ligament in her knee joint.
Quiz Results – 1st “Desperados” – 77 pts, 2nd “Majestics” – 71.5 pts and Booby Prize – “3 and One” 45 pts. Other results – Table 6 - 66 pts, Table 1 – 55.5 pts, Table 2 – 55 pts and Table 5 - 52 pts.
If you have any signs of a cold or a cough, please stay away from the Club – we have a few vulnerable members. Also, we would remind you to dress accordingly - bring a cardigan, jacket, or shawl with you as it is getting cooler.
