BEAU CHESS - the post-work workings-out of a chess amateur

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 1902, my ECF is 1913 and my ICCF is 2277.

Frauenkirche

ONE of Dresden's most famous sights is the Frauenkirche, a Lutheran church destroyed by bombing in February 1945.

The rebuilt Frauenkirche

It was reconstructed, partly with the help of donations from Coventry, whose experiences in November 1940 coined the word coventrate - koventrieren in German - to describe heavy aerial bombing of a city.
