| Welcome to Bookham Afternoon Bridge Club |
Bookham Afternoon Bridge Club celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2019. We play duplicate bridge on Monday and Thursday afternoons at the Old Barn Hall.
The Club is an affiliated member of the EBU.
Play commences at 13.15, but you need to arrive by 13.00 and be seated at your table at 13.05. This enables the Director to select the right deal to be played.
We welcome visitors. First-time visitors should arrive by 12.50. Please contact the Chairman or Secretary for more information. ► email contact form

| Monday Harrison Room Events |
On the first Monday in the month, the Main Hall is used by another organisation. We therefore have to use the Harrison Room where we are limited to 14 tables and sign-up lists are required. If the first Monday is a Bank Holiday, we have to use the Harrison Room on the second Monday with the same conditions.
Please note that we may only use the rear car park on these occasions.
The sign-up list for Monday 7th April is now full but it is worth adding your name to the reserve list as we often have cancellations.
Please let Kate know ASAP if you need to cancel: 07765431405
Advance notice re Harrison Room event on Monday 12th May:
Due to toilet refurbishment we will only be able to use the main hall toilets. Access will only be possible through the car park. It will be advisable to consider this before signing up.

| Parking at the Old Barn Hall |
Please would members and visitors note that on Thursdays we have to share the car park with the U3A bridge group who meet in the Waterfield Room. They have been allocated four spaces marked with cones near the conifer tree on the right hand side of the car park. We have received several complaints recently that the cones have been removed and the spaces used by our members. We realise that parking is somewhat restricted but we do need to respect agreements which have been reached with the Barn Management.
In general, if our event is scheduled for a meeting in the Main Hall, we must use the front car park only. If it is a Harrison Room event, we may only use the rear car park.
Once again, please do respect these provisions.

| Looking for a Partner |
There is usually a spare partner available on the day (but not always). If you are looking for a partner for a future session, you should check the message board and you can then post your message, or cancel an earlier request. You may include your email address and/or phone number, but only if you agree that your contact information can be shown on the website.
