Tony first played Bridge in his second year at Nottingham University when he was asked to make up the numbers for a drive. It went well so he rapidly found himself playing for the university which was a step up from playing inter-university Tiddlywinks matches the previous year and a lot safer than playing Rugby.

I’ve always loved games but fell in love with bridge when I was first taught it at age 21. Unfortunately though, career, friends, family and life in general all meant that I wasn’t able to start playing and learning regularly for another 15 years or so. I was lucky enough to be taught by both Raymond and Sally Brock, and at the European Championships in Istanbul in 2019 I won a bronze medal in the Transnational Women’s Teams partnering Sally, in a team that also included Diana Nettleton, Marusa Gold and Susanna Gross.
