Angry wife: “I should have married the devil; he would have made a better husband than you.”

Husband: “They would have arrested you. Marriage between relatives is illegal in this country.”

ETIQUETTE & MANNERS AT THE BRIDGE TABLE

ETIQUETTE & MANNERS AT THE BRIDGE TABLE

Above all, avoid any behaviour that would make anyone (especially beginners or new members) feel uncomfortable.

Do greet your opponents at the table and treat them with respect and courtesy.

Do not indulge in post-mortems with your partner directly after a hand is finished. (Save it for after the game.) Not only could a post-mortem undermine partnership confidence, but it may communicate information to other players who have not played the hand at other tables.

Do not criticise partner. (Keep it to yourself until after the game. You will have cooled down by then.)...And you may also have figured out that you share some of the blame.

Do compliment your opponents for fine bidding or play. (Especially beginners)

Do not gloat! (It is ugly) Be modest.

 Do say 'Director Please' in a pleasant tone. Keep your hand up so that the Director can quickly determine who called.

Do support your partner at all times.

Refreshments

 Coffee and Tea is available for members and guests
