| Norfolk Match 12th July |
Suffolk's latest match was a local derby of sorts, against our East Anglian counterparts Norfolk. Suffolk A and B both lost, but Suffolk C did fantastically well to win their match with a convincing win of almost 20 VPs.
Chris Kennedy and Andy Higginson were the top Suffolk pair overall, Jenny Price and Norbert Voelker the top pair for Suffolk B and Jeff Orton and Noel Mullan the top pair for Suffolk A.
A special thanks to Mike O'Reilly and Guy Lesser for being last minute substitutes, and coming fifth overall on the x-imps.

♥ ♠ ♣ ♦
The Mid-Anglia Pairs, hosted by Woodbridge Bridge Club took place on Sunday the 28th of June.
The event was well attended with 32 pairs contesting for the trophy under the watchful eye of Rob Sassoon the EBU tournament Director.
Raiders from Norfolk took the top honours with Rod and Sue Oakford winning comfortably from John Barker and John Stroud with Susan Denning and Steven Lawyer taking the third podium spot.
Despite the heat, a noisy fan and a temporary loss of connectivity to the Bridgemates on the last round we were well supported by the Woodbridge Club and most seemed to enjoy the event.
