Those two posts are identical save for the (year) date :)

They are indeed. Thanks for letting me know.

They were and then it was noticed that the venue was wrong for many matches.

Vic is correcting the fixtures and I will upload them later this evening.

Vic Rumsey (LCL Fixtures Secretary) has issued a revised set of fixtures which have been uploaded this morning.

Apologies for the inconvenience caused.

The cause was the omission of fixtures for the Hammersmith HEDGER team.

Sorry to raise this (given the chaos, for want of a better word, I caused in another thread a few days ago), but shouldn't the URL in the previous post return a 301 redirect to https://www.londonchess.org.uk/ ?

Apache is listening both on port 80 (http) and port 443 (https).

There are no redirects in place.

Whatever you do, don't allow that episode to deter you from posting.

I was referring to the standard practice of many websites these days (and not just those where you input vital statistics/financial details) of redirecting any requests made using http: protocol to https: protocol.

You have the choice of visiting the web site either with encrypted request submission or en clair request submission. The choice is entirely yours.
