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 1946, my ECF is 1945 and my ICCF is 2346.

Bridging The Vltava
The 14th century Charles Bridge is perhaps best known for its statues, erected about 350 years later and now all replaced by copies (the recently cleaned example nearest the camera gives an idea of how they looked originally)
The bridge gets very crowded during the day, even in February, but is quieter early morning and in foggy conditions
