Old hands, mature players

It is the Seniors Camrose this weekend, being played in Oxford. Team details are available on BGB and results will probably be updated most regularly on the EBU site.

Scotland has three experienced pairs and I expect them to do well. I would have expected them to win if the strongest Seniors pair (imho) had been available, but unfortunately family illness meant that they had to miss the trials. Even so I expect that winning is on the agenda with the Patron and England teams looking the ones to beat.

You can follow (at least) one match on BBO throughout the weekend (schedule).

As a side note, my uncle is the England NPC.

Update:

Scores after first round robin:

Scotland	91
The Patron	79
England	73
Wales	73
Northern Ireland	70
Republic of Ireland	62
