Kippen Bridge Club held its first tournament over two days in September. Four pairs came out from the St Andrew Bridge club in Glasgow. We had a very social supper at the Inn at Kippen and then played Bridge for 3 hours. Kippen managed to take its share of the prizes. Surprisingly, the ‘Weegies’ appeared not have discovered the joys of alcohol and Bridge simultaneously – but in true spirit they joined the locals.
On the following morning we adjoined to the Cross Keys for morning coffee and another two hours of Bridge, followed by lunch.
Apparently, despite the Bridge and Kippen, there is now queue of folk fancying a Bridge trip to Kippen, whilst we are contemplating the Bridge & Curry night out in Glasgow.
The club still meets every Thursday in the Cross Keys.
