Sorry that we have continued to be unable to get our group together to play bridge this year. Unfortunately the Hotel closed yesterday until 1st March 2022. But we are hopeful that we will be able to get bridge at the Hotel Vale del Rei reestablished as soon as possible after then.

Sadly the group has now been closed for over a year due to Coronovirus. It is unlikely to reopen before September 2021, and then only if we can find an additional volunteer to help run the group. Thank you to all our friends who supported us in the past.

As always at our group some of our valued members left us for a while this week and some of our old friends returned. In a place with such a fluid population that will always be the case. So we are always happy to welcome new players whether just for a week or for longer
So join us Wednesday and Friday afternoon's for bridge and a chance to make new friends.

A well subscribed and eventful week at Vale Del Rey. Towards the end of our session on Wednesday Tommy was taken ill suddenly, and an ambulance was called. He is now in hospital in Lisbon, getting the best care, and is on the way to recovery. Our best wishes go to him and his family. Despite being taken ill Tommy and his partner, Carole came top. Friday was a calmer and very enjoyable afternoon. Well done to the winners, Jane and Eryl. Next week looks like being just as busy, but hopefully not so dramatic.
