In HEAVENLY CONTRACTS we meet again the pompous and self-important Abbot who is hosting the annual St Francis of Assisi Swiss teams for monastic establishments. Hilarious encounters ensue against a team of monks from Southern Germany and some equally incomprehensible friars from Scotland. The show-down comes in a final match against their old rivals, the nuns of St Hilda''s.
Regular followers of David Bird''s work will know what to expect - a first-rate mixture of excellent bridge, entertaining characters and sparkling dialogue.
