AN AMAZING BUT ABSOLUTELY TRUE STORY....... as honestly told to Bridgemeister Gibson

I once met a chap who told me about his first and only experience of being on a bridge club committee. At the first meeting he attended,  he and a couple of other newcomers were cordially welcomed by the long standing and serving officers. Then immediately after these initial pleasantries were over, one of the senior grandees leaned forward, and to say a few words in a firm , authoratative manner........ with just a subtle hint of menace thrown in for good measure.
" You would all do well to remember that what goes on in this committee room stays in this committee room . "

So much for the openness and transparency in that particular club !
