Bridge

Bridge’s advantages include that it provides wonderful opportunities to meet people, to have a party, to have a good game, and to use your mind. It has only two disadvantages: the need to learn/improve; and the need to play with people of a compatible temperament (or they will tell you how you should have played when that is the last thing you want to hear!) The best news is that while at some parties, you can’t hear, there is nobody you know, or there is nobody you want to talk to, at Bridge, you can meet, talk to and hear everybody!

There are many people in their 90s who continue to play excellent Bridge. In London, one of the best known Bridge schools is The Andrew Robson Bridge School in Fulham (www.allinlondon.co.uk; tel: 020 7471 4626), or Google Bridge with your local area. And most Adult Education Institutes have courses on Bridge. Several papers have instructive Bridge columns, and there are internet sites where you can learn Bridge, there are computer-based CDs, and of course books to learn from. Specialist London shops include: Chess + Bridge Ltd, 369 Euston Road (www.chess.co.uk); tel 020 7388 2404.)
