Online Bridge
We hope that everyone is well and managing to cope in these difficult times.
No doubt you will all be missing your bridge sessions and seeing friends at the Club but there are other ways of keeping up with the game. Quite a few of our members are playing bridge online or watching the excellent seminars that are being broadcast.
There are various websites where you can play online and the EBU have a detailed description of these and explain how you can do this with your usual partner or with friends at https://www.ebu.co.uk/node/3736 All these online websites are very similar and all are excellent. As an example of what you can do the EBU link below describes how to register on just one of the sites and how to set up a table where four friends can play http://www.ebu.co.uk/ebuscore-wiki/bboinstructions.
Of the seminars Jack Stocken has just developed a paid subscription daily Bridgecast using Bridgebase Online to go through an instructive Intermediate or Advanced hand (or both) with a video commentary. See https://yorkshirebridge.co.uk/jacks-daily-bridgecast/
Andrew Robson also offers something similar https://www.andrewrobson.co.uk
Those of you who have been on the Mr Bridge cruises will know Bernard Magee. Bernard Magee is streaming free live bridge seminars on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at 11.00am on YouTube. You can watch live and ask questions or comment during the event or catch up on past seminars. Go to https://mrbridge.co.uk/ and scroll down to Live Seminars
We hope that we’ll all be playing bridge at the Club soon – but in the meantime enjoy what you can do online and keep safe and well.
CORONA VIRUS UPDATE
CLUB CLOSED WITH EFFECT FROM TUESDAY 17 MARCH UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE
In light of advice from the Government on March 16th the Committee has decided to suspend all drives at the club until advice is received that it is safe to resume. We will be keeping a close watch on news updates and hopefully the exponential growth of the disease will be flattened by following the official advice and resumption may be all the earlier as a result.
The Secretary will be informing, via email, all those members signed up to Pianola and phoning those others she can identify who are not.

How about an evening away from the textbooks while still exercising your intellect with a game of Bridge?
You don't play? We could teach you.
Students are welcome in the club and you would benefit from a discounted table fee.
