Chairman’s Report

  • When bridge is held in the dining room, bar staff should be able to turn on the air con. This makes such a big difference to the air quality.
  • Bridge Teaching -This will run for 20 weeks from February 1st to mid-June with the aim of preparing current students for evening and afternoon bridge sessions.
