I know , I know Club Managers should be impartial . I am pleased for any member when they triumph BUT today I am THRILLED !!! Over the Moon !!!

I am going to get into trouble but I am going to tell you their story.

I introduced Tiny to BBO about a year ago and she has attended Cascade's Acol sessions regularly. And is now learning Sayc & 2/1 . Until then although she had a PC she had only ever used it for a couple of family emailings. So along with suddenly finding that her Senior level f2f bridge was anything but Senior on BBO she has had to learn to use her computer as well.!
She became a BBO addict.

Then Mangaro wanted to do it too. So in the middle of this year she bought her very first PC . The first thing I had to show her was BBO - she took to it like a duck to water . She too soon found out that being a Senior at the Club was not going to 'cut the mustard ' on BBO so along with taking herself off to PC lessons (once I became too busy with the BIL) she too started attending/participating in Cascades Acol lessons and Olivers Precision lessons and watching vugraph etc etc

Today these two entered the BIL's Mink's pairs Matchpoints Tournament and they WON - 67.31%

Nothing to get excited about I hear you thinking -

My oath it is - Tiny is 77 and Mangaro is 82

So you YOUNG BILlies you have some work to do ;D

Did I say I am THRILLED ? - I AM thrilled !!!

Impartial? C'mon, this is worth celebrating...a true testament that bridge is for all seasons.

Speaking of seasoned, how about Dr. George Rosenkranz nearly ninety years young, still out there playing!
