Whist Breaks 2008/2009 Join us on a relaxing break when you can take part in your favourite pastime in good company with your expert hosts (on most holidays Freda & Alan Ryland) who will be available throughout the holiday to illustrate new techniques and generally oversee your game. A whist drive takes place each evening, with the opportunity to win cash prizes, plus optional sessions will be available during the day for those who wish to participate. To take a break from whist you can enjoy included excursions to local places of interest. These are leisurely and fun holidays designed for regular whist drive players, with the chance to make new friends and meet up with old ones. Most tours are based on Monday departures for 4 nights dinner, bed and breakfast. Some include free local coach departures, some you will have to make your own arrangements, or if there are 10 or more of you we can arrange transport for you at a supplement. Please contact us for further information and availability. 10th NOVEMBER 2008 8TH DECEMBER 2008 12TH JANUARY 2009 9TH MARCH 2009 EASTBOURNE BURLINGTON HOTEL from £189 The stylish Burlington Hotel, with its Grade II listed façade and elegant interior, enjoys a popular location overlooking the famous Carpet Gardens and Pier, approximately half a mile’s level walk from the resorts shopping centre.
