Its great that Vanessa is organising our Christmas bridge series again this year. We are very grateful!

Come along and enjoy 3 nights of fun bridge with spot prizes, a nice supper and lots of jokes!

Each night has a particular theme and you may wish to dress to show the theme of the night in some way.

27th November.  A Christmas carol  A song, a character..Think We Three kings/ Jingle bells/hark the Herald angels sing/ Deck the halls.........................

On Thursday afternoon we were able to celebrate the special birthday of Marie. A long term and highly respected, and valued member of our club, it was lovely to be able say Happy Birthday to her!  Never mind the singing!!

 Our own Ayako! On Thursday Richard Soloman from NZ Bridge presented Ayako with an award for being the NZ bridge volunteer of the month for October. No one deserved it more. The club also presented her with a small gift to recognise all the work she does for our club!

Am unsure whether there was any relationship between the amount of Babich wine consumed and the overall result last Friday!

Every so often, but more particularly at this time of year, we have a look at who is king of the castle in each of our four main sessions. At present, with just five sessions to go, Inge is leading on Monday mornings, Kevin on Monday nights and Thursday afternoons, and Clare (who will probably disqualify herself anyway) leads Liz on Wednesday nights. The full report is available under the Results tab.

Michael gets interviewed by Barry and Mereana on The Bridge Zone Show. Click to have a listen as he holds forth on the topic of X-Clubs.

Nice to see some Cambridge members play at congress but I hope to see more next year!

Marvellous to see our Herman win the EW Swiss pairs at congress.  The field was HUGE! And he was competing against the best of the best! Well done to him and his partner William Liu.

Well done to Mike and Ella who scored two excellent sessions of 60% placing them in third by an extremely narrow margin and just missing first place.  The competition is incredibly difficult at this Open level so good on them!
