HELP! The below mentioned Wednesday course is definitely going ahead, but for the Friday course, two more students are needed for it not to be cancelled:

This autumn, Volkshochschule is offering two weekly courses:

Starting 18 September: Wednesdays, course number Pa4081H.

IN DANGER OF BEING CANCELLED: Starting 20 September: Fridays, course  number Pa4082H.

In the meantime, we have the option to play privately at my place, usually on either Tuesdays or Thursdays.

The best ways to keep informed are

Below is a week-by-week overview, including the weeks where for one reason or the other there is no bridge course at VHS. Where nothing else is stated, we aim at arrivals from 18.15, but for those who can only come later, that is also OK. We’ll start playing as soon as enough people have arrived.

NOTE: There will be no more private bridge evenings till the autumn VHS courses start.

The occasional opportunities to play bridge privately during autumn, in the weeks where VHS is closed, are marked with *** below.

Week 38: Wednesday 18 September: VHS 1/10, and Friday 20 September VHS 1/10.

Week 39: Wednesday 25 September VHS 2/10, and Friday 27 September VHS 2/10.

Week 40: Wednesday 2 October VHS 3/10.

***NOTE: Since VHS is closed on Friday 4 October, we could have the option to play at my place, so far on either 4, 5 or 6 October, so feel free to let me know – the sooner the better – if there is interest, and if yes, on which day.

Week 41: Wednesday 9 October VHS 4/10, and Friday 11 October VHS 3/10.

Week 42: Wednesday 16 October VHS 5/10, and Friday 18 October VHS 4/10.

***Week 43: No VHS courses, so the option to play at my place Tuesday 22 October or Thursday 24 October.

***Week 44: No VHS courses, so the option to play at my place Tuesday 29 October or Thursday 31 October.

Week 45: Wednesday 6 November VHS 6/10, and Friday 8 November VHS 5/10.

Week 46: Wednesday 12 November VHS 7/10, and Friday 15 November VHS 6/10.

Week 47: Wednesday 20 November VHS 8/10, and Friday 22 November VHS 7/10.

Week 48: Wednesday 27 November VHS 9/10, and Friday 29 November VHS 8/10.

Week 49: Wednesday 4 December VHS 10/10, and Friday 6 December VHS 9/10.

Week 50: Friday 13 December VHS 10/10, so until further notice no bridge at my place.

***Week 51: At my place Tuesday 17 December or Thursday 19 December

***Week 52: Any time (I usually stay in Berlin and do not celebrate Christmas, so ……..).

***Week 1: 30 December to 5 January: For now, any time, as far as I’m concerned.
