Hello all!
I have when i started playing bridge about 3 years ago come across a website dedicated (more or less) to this game. It has tons of information and ideas and two collections of humorous, fictional stories, each story centered around a particular hand. They were written by a canadian fellow by the name of Colin Ward.
I found them not only hilarious but also extremely interesting.
The first collection tells the story of "regional matchpoint event", the author being partnered by someone quite unusual.
The Session From Hell
The second collection is called "Bridge at the Corners: The Canadian Club" in which a lonesome traveller and avid bridge player gets stranded in some remote village and - being unable to leave - experiences in amazement a whole new approach to this game by the villages' quite unusual inhabitants.
Bridge at the Corners
I hope you will enjoy them as much as i did!

But turn your speakers off before you click the link.

Starting about half way down this page: http://bridgeclubsit.../slow-play.html there is a funny poem about slow play. I thought it was very good
"Pass is your friend" - my brother in law - who likes to bid a lot.
