Results 3rd October 2007

The scoring was delayed this week as one North player picked up the wrong boards and played them against an E/W pair who had played them before, sitting in the same position, yet apparently did not experience deja vu. It's very easy at the commencement of each round for North to check that he/she is sitting at the right table and about to play the correct boards against the proper opponents. And it's easy for East to pick up any mistake simply by consulting the table card.

This failure on the part of experienced players resulted in phone calls and extra work for me, and for themselves, no matchpoints on any of the spoilt boards.

Results are as follows:

1st, Audrey & Ray, 65.2%; 2nd, Danny & Jean, 55.5%; 3rd, Gary & Peter, 54.1%; 4th, Fred & Mo, 51.3%; 5th Luigi & George, 38.8%; 6th, Harry & Tom, 36.1%; 7th, Pamela & Norman, 31.9%.

Congratulations to Audrey & Ray for coming top yet again, and to Danny & Jean for achieving their best result at the club so far/
