Happy Birthday to Leonard Barden

[John Townsend]

I believe birthday good wishes to one of our forum members are due today. See Edward Winter's article on the subject:

Indeed - happy birthday, Leonard.

Interestingly, I googled him to check the date of birth, and got as far as Leonard, when Google was offering me Barden first, followed by Leonardo helicopters, then Rossiter, Da Vinci, DiCaprio, Rogers (a doctor), Cohen and Nimoy - praise indeed!

it remembers what youve put in before so maybe you put in his name on another occasion

maybe leonardo dicaprio knows the difference between the british championships and the ecf championships

Happy 93rd Birthday to Leonard Barden!
I have always and still do enjoy reading Leonard's chess articles in the nationals.

Happy birthday to Leonard. He is one of the few people who has given me sound advice about chess, albeit many years ago.

When I woke up this morning, I wondered why today was important - thanks for the reminder.

Happy birthday, Leonard - you have enriched all chessplayers' lives.
