Bridge Blog 445-C. BFS 2 -- More table talk

          People like the tables (see Table Talk in Blog 444). Or at least Barbara Landree does. She says Franklin Kidd got them. Between games, Frank says he researched them for a year and thinks they’re a big improvement. Lightweight. Indestructible. Won’t stain either, he says. What’s not to like?
          Director Dick Rasmus really is retiring. He’ll do next year’s Buffalo regional, but otherwise he’s only available on call and only if they can reach him. “I don’t have a cell phone,” he says. Are you really old enough to retire, I ask. Just turned 69, he says. You're still a kid, I say.
          Morning snack is Tim Bits from Tim Hortons. Celine has a little plate of them waiting for me when I arrive. Afternoon snack is more cookies. The chocolate chips are yummy. Someone says Joyce Greenspan made six dozen.
          And how many tables? Not as many as Friday – sections of 11.5 and 12 in the morning, 10 each in the afternoon.
