I begin this blog after getting back into league chess following many years' absence due to work. My post-job status also means I am able to play more tournament chess. My new club in London is Battersea and my first game for them is on Thursday September 14, 2017. I start with a Fide rating of 1858, an ECF grade of 169 (=1968 elo) and an ICCF correspondence rating of 2267.
My current Fide is 2009, my ECF is 1955 and my ICCF is 2325.

So Far, So Good
ARRIVED at Heathrow Terminal 2, long before checkin for my flight was officially due to open, but I was allowed to proceed anyway.
Security took well under five minutes to pass through, and I am now sat at the Big Smoke Taphouse & Kitchen drinking what purports to be a double espresso but is more like an americano - I knew everything could not run smoothly.
