Parkes Phoenix

Bridge Banter

October 8, 2021 By Maggi Barnard

The new Parkes Bridge Club committee are (L-R) Dawn Phipps, Beryl Twardy, Rosemary Morris, Peter Dearden, Suzie McNamara, Jill Peterson and Kevin Robinson. (Absent: Nancye Blatch and Bev Laing.)

We are back at the bridge tables! Albeit in masks, with chairs pushed back from the table to maintain reasonable distance, which can be tricky when you need your glasses to read the bidding sheet from that distance, but your mask keeps your glasses fogged up. But despite everything COVID, it’s great to be back.

We have a change of guard on the club committee. We thank Greig Ball for his work as past president as the role passes to Kevin Robinson who is applying himself to the position with the rest of the committee who are keeping the Parkes Bridge Club in good hands.

Winners over the past week were Bev Laing and Joan Reilly on Tuesday, 28th September, Louise Payne with Peter Quin, and Jill Peterson with Lee McCabe on Thursday, 30th September, and Rosemary Morris and Anne Berkeley on Monday, 4th October.

Newcomers are welcome. We play Tues-days and Thursdays at 1pm and Mondays at 6:30pm at the Lutheran Church Hall.

Check our website www.parkes.bridge-club.org or call Kevin Robinson 0429 621 712 for more information.
