Please put your name as reference on the payment.

Our Christmas party is next Monday. Please arrive from 6.30 for drinks and nibbles before playing bridge as normal at 7.15. It is a host evening, so please come with or without a partner. We look forward to seeing as many of you as possible.

Some of our recent new members may not know that we also have an online game most weeks. These are teams of four matches and usually happen on a Wednesday evening, starting at 7.15 and often finished before 9.30. If you would like more information about this - it's free, that's the main thing! - please email david47@ntlworld.com.

Having said that, over Christmas, our teams games are likely to be on a Sunday. See the club website nearer the time for information. And there’s also an automated system to email you when the website is updated about teams event. Email chris.kaye@gmx.com if you want to use this service.

Also useful information for new members, we have a club group on WhatsApp. This is mainly to help you find a partner for club evenings or online teams, often at the last minute, but there's sometimes other useful information posted there. To be added to this group, please email david47@ntlworld.com

We will be playing bridge as usual on Monday 22^nd and 29^th December.

We now have 46 people going on our second bridge weekend. If you are now wishing you had signed up for it, please let me know and we can see if there is still rooms available at the hotel. Details are still on our website.
