PEWSEY BRIDGE CLUB<br />
Play bridge every Wednesday evening from<br />
7pm. We play at the Methodist Hall, <strong>Pewsey</strong><br />
(opposite the Post Office) on Goddard Road.<br />
Usually there are four tables and sometimes<br />
more in play. Whenever possible we play<br />
duplicate but when numbers dictate otherwise<br />
we play Chicago (score adjusted by your HCP).<br />
It is a social and friendly club with all levels <strong>of</strong><br />
play and you don’t need to have a partner and<br />
you can play on an occasional basis if you wish.<br />
We charge £2 per session. If you fancy a game<br />
or would like more information then give Dave<br />
or Lizzie Humfress a call on (01672) 564293, or<br />
email them at humfress@gmail.com.
