I'll play you Smudge ;D. Have you logged onto www.chess.com You can play on line there and use the site for live games between mates. Check it out and when/if you register give me a ring to arrange an on-line slot.

Cheers buddy.

WWW.CHESS.COM.. keep up young man!
and he didn't claim he had mates, he said I could use it to undertake games of chess between mates  ;) :P

Honestly, you have a one track mind, you should take up a nice hobby like repairing knackered old bikes or drinking or something to help take your mind off it...  :P ;D

Cool, have registered now, is it possible to play a correspondence game? Makes it more sociable at home than disappearing for hours  ;)

WHAT IN THE BLISTERING BLUE BLAZES !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.......................

Whilst I would not decry peoples efforts, come on lads ;D

Does this mean we will be opening up a sports section . How about golf , yes let's all chat about golf.

Or keeping it indoors , how about snakes and ladders or Monopoly. What about battleships?

Good grief........... ;)

Well the solo isn't coming out to play in the snow, the outfit doesn't go at the moment and the garage is b***dy freezing... and have you seen what ****'s on telly?!? ::)
You go and spoil a good walk if you want, I'll crack open another bottle of port and sit by the fire and play a board game 'till the weather improves  ;) ;D

(and anyway, I did hint it was Off Topic in the header so  :P  ;) ;D )

Bored game ?  ;D

I'm sat here waiting for the latest snow fall and spent the afternoon in the garage oiling and WDing my Rs and started the rest up for a while.
Was a bit nippy and I found myself planning some heating for the 'office'. Also tried to work out whats going to the Dragon.

Nice to know you're maintaining tradition Smudge and quaffing lots of port. I've just run out and are having to fall back on single malt{ Now that my belly has calmed  :o}.

Ok but you're paying the medical bills for the psychiatric rehabilitation once you tip poor Rob over the edge..

Hmm, a somewhat cautious opening Andy? and in old style notation too just to make me concentrate :o
Ok, I'll answer your opening (PC2 - C3 for the youngsters) with Knight to Queens Bishop 3 (B8 - C6)
