Our Cards 500 sessions continue to attract U3A members due in part to the flexibility that two sessions per month allow.
We are proud to say that some of our regulars are aged 93 and 92. What an achievement to be able to play at that age.
Our sessions are sometimes noisy but with much laughter. A number of the games we play, particularly 5-handed, include calling a partner when finalizing the bid. This has brought into question what rules apply viz. do you have to call a partner and does the bidding have to start at 6 or can you bid at any level? I will clarify the answers to these queries and issue a clarification note.
I have purchased new packs of playing cards that have been well received and are a joy to shuffle and play with. The old cards do seem to get sticky quickly.
