Re: Southend Congress
Ezra Kirk did well just to find the venue, if his round 5 game is anything to judge by

Re: Southend Congress
Don't know if anyone else noticed but Matthew Wadsworth resigned in a Rook against Rook and Bishop ending against Alan Merry in the last round in a position which was still drawn. Also interesting is that Alan won with R+B against R in the 1st round against James Golding.
