Christmas doesn't seem to be putting much of a dent in JEC's Schedule. Once again, we have a match on Saturday at 11:00 PST/ 14:00 EST / 19:00 UTC / 20:00 CET. Post here or message me privately if interested.

Saturday afternoon is generally tennis time, but not this week, so I am available and would certainly like to play. Unfortunately, I don't have an established partnership with any BBF members (except GIB), but I would be up for a blind date.

Well, that's 3. Guess we need one more. Pairs still welcome, of course.

I do read these requests, but my Saturdays have been occupied a lot as of lately.

Maybe in the new year.

If it is 20:00 for GMT+1 as normal I should be available...I believe I am done with work 1 hour before that.

Count me out unless absolutely needed actually...working earlier tomorrow so I will probably be exhausted.

I've just spent some time bidding with gszes and I think we are miles apart in our approach, he has a more sophisticated system than I use.
So, if cherdano is happy to play a simple 2/1 system that may work out well. I'd obviously like to go over things before the game, I am free anytime to 11pm pst tonight if you are available, Arend? I don't know what time zone you are in.

My basic 2/1 card is on Bridge Winners, my BW userid is Kathryn. I'm happy to change the defense to NT , or anything else :)

Emergency! It is 3:30am and I have what i think is a sinus infection. I will need to go to the medical clinic in the morning. Is there anyone else who could play?

I'll try to be there and play with Arend if you're not available, Kathryn. Get well!

I played with Arend with Bill and George at the other table, and we lost 57-101.
