Another bridge evening round Sarah’s, with another partner! Saying that, this is not to say this was a bad thing, as this partner was both enthusiastic and learnt very quickly. I think I even detected her counting the cards as they were being played and playing her cards appropriately. The only tricky concept was the bidding, but that would become second-nature with time.

On either side of the card playing was good food and good conversation, on all sorts of topics and even a presentation on something biological with lots of words I didn’t understand. None the less, a very good evening.
