Finally changed from my pic to a cartoon one after coming on and finding 6 people asking for my details - I came on here to play chess!!!!
Find chess fascinating - how just 32 pieces in 6 different varieties on an 8 x 8 board can offer such a wide diversity of game
Love the idea of playing on this site too - allows me to play as I am most comfortable - au naturel - and no one is any the wiser - :)
I am getting challenged to a lot of games - which is very flattering (or people see me as an easy challenge). Please be patient though
My tiny pea sized brain can't cope with many games and if you notice I'm already playing 8 or more I am afraid I cannot except any more requests because my brain cannot cope and my head will explode ... which will cause a bit of a mess and hinder my game somewhat.
The world is never quiet, even its silence eternally resounds with the same notes, in vibrations which escape our ears. As for those that we perceive, they carry sounds to us, occasionally a chord, never a melody.
Albert Camus.
Chess at least offers something else to concentrate on ....
