The night finished off with a few boards of crazy bridge which was played as an individual with each even numbered board having a different instruction ... "Don't bother bidding ... this board MUST be played in 7NT by West" ... "No dummies this hand" ... "If the bidding reaches the 4 level - North has to play it in 4H" ... "only look at 3 cards until after the bidding has finished". Well done to Laurie Belfield who won the individual scratch while Diane Jager was top in the handicap results!
