THURSDAY 14th

Thanks to everyone who came along on Thursday – 4 full tables, which was fantastic!

We hope to see you again this coming Thursday, same place, same time (2pm – 4pm) and same format.

For anyone who has yet to venture back to the club, the format is the same as it was pre Covid and is fun, friendly, and non-competitive.  It’s a great opportunity to catch up with bridge friends, discuss the hands played and…..you don’t need to have a partner.

We are still mindful of COVID, so you will find the tables well-spaced out, windows slightly open to provide ventilation (don’t worry, it’s not been cold), hand sanitisers, tissues and wee bins at all tables and contactless payment rather than cash.  We are still asking for masks to be worn (in line with SBU guidance) but as the session is only for two hours, this doesn’t seem to be causing too much of an issue.

Happily, the coffee bar should be open for business this Thursday and I’m sure this will be as popular as ever.

If I have whetted your appetite for coming back to the club and you are interested in trying out the Thursday session, please book a space on the club’s website – either by clicking on the link.. Sign up sheets – THE BRIDGE CLUB ABERDEEN (SCIO) (aberdeenbridgeclub.co.uk) or by logging into the website….  “sign in” on the blue menu bar.  From there you will need to use the password “transfer” and then add your name to the list.

Please note that a minimum of 8 is needed to run this session, so please check the website on Thursday to confirm the session is running.

If you have any questions about the Thursday session, please email Carole on finance@aberdeenbridgeclub.co.uk

Thursday Social Bridge

Posted on by

It’s been a long time coming, but the club is now open for “Face to Face” bridge on a Thursday afternoon, from 2pm to 4pm.

This session has been running for a number of weeks now and it would be fabulous is we could tempt you to give it a try before the club fully re-opens, hopefully, later this month.  (keep a look out for an email from the President with further information)

The coffee bar isn’t quite up and running yet, so you may want to bring a drink/snack with you.

Dear Players,

Here is the link for Friday 4th

https://play.realbridge.online/dg.html?p=220304128424&q=FridayNight3p

If you have never played on the site, do not be afraid. It does not like old ipads though. Nor mobile phones.

Cost is £1.00 for drop in players whom I can catch up with later.

You don’t need a partner. Nor do you have to be an SBU member. Good mix of regular players there to welcome you.

Loraine
