keefer Posted Monday at 10:36 PM Posted Monday at 10:36 PM I've played Hearts since summer camp, and various card games and mah-jong, triple-play while caring for parents in Arizona... I've just retired and would love to join some retired/gay card group in London - but have yet to find... one of my early retirement goals is to learn bridge... + Charlie 1
TonyDown Posted Tuesday at 02:06 AM Posted Tuesday at 02:06 AM I might also enjoy learning bridge. My hometown had a fantastic newspaper with everything, including a daily column on playing bridge. I didn't know the game but the column must have been adjacent to something I read so I noticed it. My mother belonged to 3 bridge clubs. She used to deal bridge hands on the dining room table for practice. My sense is those days are gone, meeting in homes and playing bridge. + Charlie 1

Well, those days may be greatly diminished, but I for one play bridge once a week with friends. We usually play 4 to 5 hours at a stretch.. And I know it’s played a lot in many retirement homes. I highly recommend learning to play bridge especially if you have a good friend who likes playing cards since it is a team game. Some people are very serious about it and play for master points. But I really enjoy a good Social game. Edited Tuesday at 04:26 AM by BigK + Charlie 1
