Bridge | 29 October 2022

I get very tense, not to say cranky, if I’m interrupted while playing bridge. But last week I decided it was time to chill out – as I’m sure anyone else would if they too had witnessed Gitte Hecht-Johansen’s extraordinary feat of multi-tasking.

Gitte is originally from Denmark but has long been a fixture – an unusually elegant one – on London’s bridge scene, both as a player and a tournament director.
