SUMMARY:Bridge
DESCRIPTION:The Bridge group has a potential of twelve members but the usual attendance is eight. Members range from those with significant experience of playing bridge (but who have lapsed) through those with experience in card games other than bridge – to complete beginners. Players usually progress quickly\, becoming comfortable with counting points\, basic bidding to agree contracts\, and play to make\, or defeat\, contracts \nThe intention is to move on at an agreed pace – but this is very much enjoyable social bridge\, not ‘hard-nosed’ competition stuff. \nDetails\n\nSessions are held fortnightly on alternate Thursdays\nUsually between 2.00pm – 4.00pm.\nMeetings taking in place by rota in members’ houses.\nMembers make a one-off payment of £2.00 to buy cards and score pads.\n\nContact\nRoger Wingrove  via “Contact” on this website

SUMMARY:Bridge
DESCRIPTION:The Bridge group has a potential of twelve members but the usual attendance is eight. Members range from those with significant experience of playing bridge (but who have lapsed) through those with experience in card games other than bridge – to complete beginners. Players usually progress quickly\, becoming comfortable with counting points\, basic bidding to agree contracts\, and play to make\, or defeat\, contracts \nThe intention is to move on at an agreed pace – but this is very much enjoyable social bridge\, not ‘hard-nosed’ competition stuff. \nDetails\n\nSessions are held fortnightly on alternate Thursdays\nUsually between 2.00pm – 4.00pm.\nMeetings taking in place by rota in members’ houses.\nMembers make a one-off payment of £2.00 to buy cards and score pads.\n\nContact\nRoger Wingrove  via “Contact” on this website \nThis event has been cancelled

SUMMARY:Chichester Theatre Visit - Magic
DESCRIPTION:Harry Houdini is the greatest illusionist the world has ever known. Arthur Conan Doyle is the creator of literature’s most brilliant detective\, Sherlock Holmes. \nTheir mutual admiration blossoms into a profound friendship\, even as they discover a shared obsession with spiritualism. Conan Doyle believes fervently in the psychic world and the promise of reunion with his dead son; Houdini is determined to demonstrate it’s a cruel fraud. Which of these sparring partners will be proved right: the genius writer of fiction or the infallible magician? \nBased on extraordinary historical events\, Magic asks what we’re prepared to believe\, and why. \nFor more information contact Kay Corke via Contact on this website
