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 2012, my ECF is 1933 and my ICCF is 2254.

Roman Origins
LEGEND has it Olomouc was founded by Julius Caesar.

Remains of a legionaries' camp have been found, but it almost certainly had no connection with the famous Roman general.
The area does have quite a history, however, with continuous occupation since at least the seventh century AD.
