Strawberry Bridge update

Calling all men of sartorial discernment!

A few of us were debating in the pub recently that we ought to have a Loud Shirt Day on the 26th of this month – as loud shirts go so well with strawberries! If you would like to be part of this select band of fashionistas, seek out the loudest shirt you have and parade it proudly on the 26th. It is possible – though by no means likely – that the loudest shirts will find their way onto the official club website.

To avoid the possibility of having my collar felt by the Equality Police, ladies may like to display their loudest skirts – to make it a truly Loud Shkirt Day!

Bassingham Bridge Club at the Panto!

Booking tickets for the Panto has now gone online and I found out last night that they will be available from the 1st of November – which is two months earlier than usual. I therefore need to know who would like to go to the Panto by next Thursday, as I need to apply on the 1st to be sure of getting the number of tickets I expect we will need. The panto details are as follows:

The Panto will be Peter Pan, held in Bassingham Primary School Hall, at a cost of £11 per head and I shall be booking for Friday 31st of January. I will need to collect payment either next Monday or next Thursday as I will have to pay at the time of booking. If paying by cash I would appreciate the right money – or you can pay by cheque – payable to me – B R Leverett.

In order to reply to me just cl,ick on my name in the box below.

Sorry for the short notice but as I said, I only found out the new booking date last night.

Charity Bridge Day

We need three more players to make up full tables for the charity Bridge Day next Friday. Robin needs a new partner after his original partner has had to withdraw and another pair would prevent some people having to sit out. If you are able to fill any of these vacancies – or know of anyone who would – please let me know asap.

Thanks
