"Village Peoples" Charity Christmas Bridge Cup

There were fireworks in "the Village" during bonfire night’s Bridge League.

The standard of bridge continues to rocket in the “Village”, due in no small part to the head coach, Helen Powers.

Therefore it was fitting that, together with her partner Daniel Pearce Higgins, they took the "Top Gun” accolade.

Runners up were Simon Evans and Peter Quick. Bouncing back to the Aces division were, Frances Middleton and Andrew Joyce with the night's top score of +35.7, together with “The Terminators” Liz Drew and Adrian Lunt.

League Rookies Sally Wilmott and Pamela James Moore made their mark with a score of 21 IMPs and promotion to the Kings.

A special mention goes to Steve Grisman and Sue Parnaby achieving a personal best.

Whilst "The Lion Hearts" Richard Gould and Richard Priestly joined the ancient order of the wooden spoon.

"The Overlords" also known as Colin Palmer and Brian Organ remain unassailable at the top of the “ladder” after a close encounter with "the Ladies who Lunch" Dorothy Johnson and Gill Boase . The Friday night nail-biter was snatched from the "Ladies" grasp when "The Overlords" came from behind overturning a 700 pt deficit in the last two hands.

A monthly team contest has been arranged between local Villages: Burghill, Sutton St Nicholas, Ledgmoor and the "Village Peoples".
