Spotted AGH Kluth behind Karpov running a demonstration board.

More spotting in due course.

Yeah, there's a few I can't pick out. Interesting footage of the football match played.

Gerry Jacobs in the check shirt in front of demo board during KvK game. The applause for the handshake led Stewart Reuben to wave angrily at the crowd to keep quiet, not that we took much notice. Some of us idly wondered if Viktor intended to default, but I think the story at the time was that a lift got stuck, rather than getting lost in the building.
