Wednesday Night Teams - the results.........
A Comedy of Errors
Setting the Scene:
The last night of the Barbara Minogue teams. 8 teams playing and the winners names will be put on the board for all to read. No pressure then.
The Problem
Computers are wonderful things, aren't they? When they work well they are terrific. When monkeys in control they can go awry. That's what happened last night. This monkey (Cherie Barton) couldn't get the bridgemates working. I called in reinforcements (Dallas Dagg) and she managed to get the first session working. Neither of us could get the final session to read. We tried and tried and eventually gave up.
The Solution
All is not lost. The players recorded their results on paper in a very old school way. Fortunately, all present knew how to work a pen and paper and did a magnificent job of it too. ( Click "Read more" below )
