WITH four tables in play at Penally Bridge Club on December 2, top players by a long way were Jo & John with an excellent score of 68.75%.

This was no surprise really, following a consistently high standard of bidding and play by them throughout the afternoon. They met their match only when encountering Geoff & Paul.

Second and third places were a close-run thing between Jill & Dave with 59.72% and Geoff & Paul V. with 59.03%. No slams were bid, but a few pairs succeeded in making 12 tricks.

At the time of writing there were insufficient numbers to warrant play on December 23 and/or 30, a decision to be made at the next meeting.

The Club’s Christmas lunch will be held on December 16 at The New Overlander. —JCG
