Hi,

Can any member here who lives in Durham or Warrington send me a PM.
I need a small favour.

I'd like to send you an ex-PM who now writes for "The Daily Male" but I am not a resident of Warrington.

It's OK I have just found a non-player in Durham to help out.

Now Boris is apparently at a loose end can he not be approached to be president of the ECF?

If you'd have asked before the recent Warrington Rapidplay, there would be lots of players there; there's quite a few players in the Warrington League, I could ask their President if you said what you wanted

Not enough female players for that to be an attractive proposition for him!!!

I suggest approaching one of his children instead, to draw a parallel with the current ECF president.

If you mean the Warrington in Buckinghamshire, I live just down the road. But, as I suspect, it's the bigger one further north, then sorry, no can do

Hi All,

And I now have a chess contact from Warrington who is going to help out.

Both Durham and Warrington have different DVD's in their £1.00 box I want.
The third one I wanted was in the Dundee branch but I did a day trip on my bus pass to get it.

Not a wasted day in Dundee, I picked up few cheap algebraic chess books (doublers) I can pass on to my cubs.
(they look at descriptive notation as if it's in Egyptian hieroglyphs so only algebraic will do.)

Today in a charity shop I picked up an Oxford Companion to Chess (1984 edition - my 3rd copy!) and two NIC year books (2014 and 2015) £1.00 each.
