Bridge; next Sunday 29/7/2007

Benedict is desperate to learn Bridge, but it's often difficult to find a gathering prepared to include a very beginner. I suppose we only really need a fourth - but it needs to be an experienced and tolerant fourth.

Anyway, we thought that next Sunday, 29th July, would be a good time to gather people together at our house to play bridge - we'd like a mixture of experienced people and beginners, so don#'t be shy, now's your chance.

Comment if you're interested, and what time you can make.

Try mini-bridge for starters. It takes away some of the complexity whilst still introducing basic concepts, in particular counting points and dummy. The Independent had a booklet explaining it on Saturday, we have a copy if you want it.

I'd offer myself as an experienced and tolerant fourth but I'm not sure what A. would say about me disappearing off for another Sunday to play bridge....

I'm unaware of mini-bridge, but it sounds like a good idea. I see there's lots of resources online, and EBU has a computer version. Thankyou!

You could always bring A with, but then we might spend all our time cooing at baby instead of playing :)
