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.

Welcome Back

BETTER weather returned today, but with maximum temperatures in the low, rather than high, 20s.

Some rooms at the venue, Hotel Izgrev, suffered water pouring through the ceiling overnight, and the wifi is proving a nightmare today.

The force of the rain spread gravel over a road beside the hotel

After yesterday's free day in the championships, the last three rounds begin this afternoon, continuing tomorrow and Thursday.
