Report from Val Wright
Our 6th Charity Tournament was held on 4 May 2008 in aid of the Bournemouth Society for
the Visually Impaired (BSVI) at their Rooper Hall in Moordown, which has now become a
regular venue. The play was in roundish robin format with 8 divisions each playing 6 games,
and the results are as below.
Highest word score during the day was ESCAPISM from Penny Downer for 203.
Congratulations go to Vera Sime for winning Group F for two years consecutively.
A raffle raised £83 for the BSVI and sales of homemade cakes raised a further £79. We were
able to donate £500 from the entry fees, even though entries are declining each year, due to the
increasing number and variety of tournaments. Thus, the BSVI benefited by a total of £662.
Late arrivals invariably have good excuses – this time it was the SATNAV, which apparently
directed it’s driver to Bournemouth Airport! However, they managed to navigate themselves
successfully from there and actually made it on time.
