15,my sweet momma taught me 50 years ago.I was in the womb hearing the tiles clicking and clacking,I play with her from the 50"s

16,watched my mom for many years

17,Bought a book. Bought a set. Played all hands around the table. Now I’d probably also watch a few YouTube tutorials that weren’t around then. I was able to play in the first game I played in and then improved as I played more and with different people. Best if you get to play with good players. After a while, length of having played is definitely not an indicator of competence in the game as many long time players are not necessarily good players, they’ve just played a long time. A class would have been too slow for me, but most people are comfortable with classes. I’ve stagnated into being a good high-ish intermediate. To get to be a high level player you need, like with most any activity, to dedicate lots of time, practice, and to be flexible and open to new ideas.

18,My tennis friends. Every Thursday and Friday afternoon after tennis they disappeared. I found out where ..,,❤️
