I played Bridge with David in the pub on Tues evenings. Or rather I should say I played bridge against David because he played with with his regular partner Jon. They used a bidding system which they called the Fawber Four Barrelled system, which had been devised over a weekend at Fawber Farm and which was insanely complicated. Now in Bridge you are allowed to ask the opponents what any of their bids mean, however it was a tenant that when playing against David and Jon that you never asked what their bids meant as that would provide them the opportunity to explain their bids to each other, and as their system was so insanely complicated they had regularly forgotten what any particular bid meant. It was best just to leave them to their own devices and hope they dug themselves into a hole which happened more frequently as the night wore on. I have very fond memories of working with David at Acorn and Arm, playing Bridge on Tuesdays and spending time at Fawber. He was a true gentleman
