The answer is YES, even though a few small cracks did appear in the Mixed B last night they still managed to pull off a 7-2 victory over Reardon Smith at Sophia Gardens.

Glyn (in half-term relaxed mode) & Helen went to 3 with the 1st pair again, and at 13 – 18 down in the 3rd thought it was all over ~ but they dug in their heels and pulled off a 21 – 18 win! Unfortunately, it had had its effect, and they were “pants” against the 2nd pairing and lost in 2. Luckily they got their act back together against the 3rds.

Sally & Len battled out a win over the 2nd pair, but all went a bit Pete Tong against the 3rds, losing in 3. And an easy victory against the 1st pair (we wont mention they gave us a bye due to injury).

3rd pairing of Chris & Martin (3rd pairing?) kept their cool in the intense heat (the hall was 10 deg hotter than Helen’s apartment in Spain in the middle of summer!) flying through all of their games in 2.

Good news was we didn’t need any hot recreation assistants ~ but maybe a referee should be on hand for Len & Sallys next encounter!
