Bridge on the Thames
The cruise is arranged by the Oxfordshire Bridge Association by contract with Salters Steamers.
Please address all questions to the OBA at obafestival@gmx.co.uk or call 01865 377382.
The Lady Ethel will set off at 10:30 am on 16th May 2018. You must ensure that you are on board in good time before then. The embarkation point is the Salters landing stage at Folly Bridge, Oxford OX1 4LA. Parking nearby is limited. Buses are scheduled to call at the Speedwell Street Stop (S1) every few minutes on several routes including numbers 13, 3/A/B, 35 and the 300 park&ride (Redbridge). Other park&ride buses stop close to the City Centre, a short walk from Folly Bridge down St Aldate's.
Lunch will comprise sandwiches and fruit. If you have allergies or particular dietary needs, please let us know as early as you can.
Access to boats on rivers can be tricky: if you have disabilities or insecurities that might make it difficult for you to get onto the boat or off it or to move around on it, please let us know or contact Salters direct before booking. The Salters website is at http://www.salterssteamers.co.uk/.
We will be aiming to provide about 2½ hours of table-time for each player. The rest of the time is for you to enjoy the cruise. We will help arrange partnerships for those who sign up without partners.
