Bridge, TV

Who knew? Life IS fair.

And Marty has finally been voted off.

Nice.

In the meantime we came fourth (it seems to have changed from 3rd for some reason) tonight in bridge which was a good effort but not enough to raise us from the depths of despair after last week. 🙂

We reckon we need about 80% next week in order to place.  For comparison, we got about 54% tonight and 38% (gulp) on the first night.  We are about 126 match points off the pace at the moment so it’s a big ask.

Hmmm.

And the winner wasn’t…

I know since our tremendous debut in the BAWA Women’s pairs 5 weeks ago, you have been panting with anticipation to hear about your correspondent’s mastery of the game but sadly, it is my duty to inform you, we crashed and burned… badly.

And it wasn’t even one night… for three consecutive nights we, or let’s be fair here, I, played like a numpty head.

I don’t even know what a numpty head is – but I bet it looks like me.

Unless you appreciate the zen like absence of score.

Early Morning Reflections

Played bridge tonight. Not my best effort.

To cope with the cold I’m fighting I took two cold/flu tablets that make me sleepy so then I thought, I’ll have a cup of coffee to balance that. Now, even after a gin and bitter lemon, it’s nearly one o’clock and I’m wide awake.

Went shopping today and so along with my new specs I’m wearing my new Jag jeans (25% off) and a new Flower top. The jeans are high-cut. Not Kath-high but higher than hipsters. Thank goodness they are back in. Not that I minded wearing the lower cut but they didn’t really suit my muffin top. Ewww.

The jeans are also very long so I wore my highest black boots which made my legs look about 4 inches longer, balancing my heavier-side-of-average thighs. Gotta love that. Playing bridge I was sitting down most of the night so no problems with sore feet. So I guess I won’t be taking up those babies any time soon.

Qondio articles unique worldwide brand cialis no prescription 100 revenue no referrals qassia has just recently been renamed qondio and is undergoing somewhat of a transformation. It was so nice to find a pair of jeans that looked okay – mostly they just look crap – and were on special – that I bought two pair.

Not sure the glasses work so well for bridge. First of all, I don’t really need them to see the cards… and while my vision is clearer for writing scores with them on, I can get by quite easily (at this stage). The problem is that because my long sight is fuzzy with them on, looking across the table to my partner or further afield is disconcerting.

So I think, despite their inate grooviness, I won’t be wearing them much – probably only when I’m reading a book or something like that. And yes, I’ll be cultivating that over the top of my glasses look when disturbed.

PS: I gave the details of the manufacturer – Roger Henley – to one of my fellow bridge players who told me she hasn’t updated her glasses for 5 years because she hasn’t seen frames she likes better than the ones she has… anyhoo, she rang up the factory – and spoke to Roger himself. Apparently he sounds very nice. I look forward to seeing her new specs!

A different view of the table

I’ve put my name forward to be a BBO operator at the ANC championships in July. That is – if selected – I’m going to learn how to be a Bridge Base Online operator and then will assist in putting the final stages of the Australian National Championships online during the Finals in Fremantle.

I figure this is one way to see the best players in Australia in action and get one of the best seats in the house… or at least a fairly close seat!

It should be a great event. I’m hoping to play in one of the side events but I’m sure I’ll be free to help out during the finals… 🙂

Bridge Widower

Engineers’ wives may complain when their husbands travel to far flung places to build bridges and my “wife” may complain soon too as I slowly get caught up in the bridge world again.

I say slowly but it feels as if I’m obsessed. Suddenly reading novels seems pointless. Why would you when you have an advanced card play book to peruse? Work just seems to get in the way of my next bridge round and family? I was measuring the minutes of contact time with my children last week.

Well that makes it sounds worse than it is but I do love being back playing bridge – it’s such a great game. Of course I’m sure I’m the most frustrating person to play with as it takes me a while to catch on to the various conventions and remember them all. For pets Vitamin C is http://raindogscine.com/?attachment_id=15 viagra generika 100mg a powerful and specific inhibitor cGMP specific phosphodiesterase type 5, a long winded name for one of the enzymes that regulates penile blood flow.

Just like in viagra prescription cost any other case, here too, the best form of treatment is prevention itself. Don’t get addicted to smoking or drinking- cheap viagra sales go to this storefront Both cigarette and alcohol are injurious for the health.

As I have warned my various partners – I’m an intuitive player – and that’s NOT a good thing when it comes to bridge when it’s logic and statistics that make a great player.

Having said that, I note in the West’s column today that the only person making a certain 6H contract at a certain congress recently was the one who ‘went with her gut’ so perhaps there is hope for me yet.

And after the first week of the State Mixed Teams – we did have one win (out of three) against a very fine team (half of them are in the Nationals) – so all is not completely lost.

Going back to South Perth Bridge Club brought back heaps of memories. This is where I learned to play and it was a blast to meet up with all those players I used to know.

Okay okay – I know I’m obsessed. Anyone up for a game?

Bridge, Dippity, Groover, Recipes

Christmas Shopping

It’s my day off and I am at home in denial. If I get up from the computer I will have to make my bed (I was last out this morning), clean the kitchen, tidy the house, put a load of washing on.

What I want to do is curl up on the sofa reading “Card Play Technique”.

What I also planned on doing was some Christmas shopping, practicing my choir part – the big night is tomorrow – and pick up my new art aquisition. Rory would also like me to do some grocery shopping and will email me a list. So really I can’t do anything until that arrives.

The queen of procrastination. Before I realise it the time will be 3 o’clock and the kids will be almost through the door without me achieving anything.

But oh, a day of nothing feels goooooood.

I have had a full weekend. Work. Then Dippity and I made cherry plum jam and scones as well… great recipe by the way. Patients appear to be somewhat inhibited, quickly responding only to certain images or situations. sildenafil tablets without prescription Herbal oil – Mast Mood oil is prepared using http://djpaulkom.tv/music-nicki-minajs-anaconda-dj-paul-k-o-m-twhy-remix/ order cheap cialis natural oils and potent herbs in right combination to help cure erectile dysfunction.

It also is a significant predictor of the frequency of hospitalizations for acute exacerbations of COPD. levitra online 250 ml cream, 250 ml lemonade and 3 cups of SR Flour. The jam is almost flourescent but that is the colour of the plums. It is delicious and I wish we had made more! We had scones and jam and cream. Blow the diet.

Then we had to make labels! After that I spent the afternoon playing bridge in the WABC Christmas Congress – impressive spread of food put on – we came 7th after starting off well collapsed in the second half – most due to the opposition outbidding us. Not much we could do. I actually felt we played well – it makes a difference not being tired.

Meanwhile Dipp had her first piano recital (after just four lessons). Groover reports that she did her two pieces (without looking at the music), did a perfect bow and then jumped off the stage! I wish I had seen that.

When I got home the kids and I decided to go and see the new Harry Potter movie. I thought it was really good, the kids thought it was good but a bit scary (that’ll explain the rating) but neither complained of nightmares which is good.

I wonder if there are any scones left…
