1 It's only to be expected that it should. After all, today is the day of the Grapple Reunion. A sub-set of the elderly group will assemble in the RAF Club and will take the annual opportunity to be in the company of others who, long ago, spent a youthful year on the island to the south of Hawaii. I suppose we'll look at each other and see how one is faring compared with the others. Look out for further details.
2 Bridge last night. On the first board, your correspondent, being dealer, opened 2C; the LHO overcalled 4D; partner responded 4NT. Opener and responder make their way to 7H, played by opener. Contract made. It could have been 7NT. Later in the evening, your correspondent, being dealer, passed; LHO opened 1D, opener's partner passed; RHO responded 1NT; at this point, your correspondent, having no diamonds but having some seven points including five clubs to the KJ bid (a cheeky) 2C; passed out; with the aid of a friendly lead, your correspondent made 12 tricks. I gave Anne Brown the news about Noah. I wonder if, instead of enjoining him to get 'on your bike', will tell him to 'get in your boat'.
3 Following the reunion there will be a gathering on the patio. Tomorrow will be anniversary of Terry's birthday. So we can wish him well. We'll miss you. Even as we do, think of us.
4 There will be a Father's Day brunch in the Club on Sunday 19 June. Perhaps that might be the day for an assembly: Mass, followed by lunch. How are you fixed for that day?
More to come.
Stayathome
