But we are a friendly group and if help is needed there are experienced players here willing to offer advice.rnSociability and flexibility are also important as, from time to time, to accommodate odd numbers of players (not divisible by four) you may be asked to play three-handed bridge or to temporarily partner with any other member of the group. |
