Merry Christmas to all our members and a Happy New Year!

 

We had a lovely wrap up on Monday Evening. A short game of bridge, won by Mary de Courcy & Owen O'Meara (N/S) and Mary Cox & Niall Sommerville (E/W), was followed by festivities in the bar.

A lovely opportunity to say a big thank you to our Tournament Director, John Royds.

Santa made a guest appearance with lots of goodies. Food, drink and fun was had - a lovely festive atmosphere!
