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 1913, my ECF is 1904 and my ICCF is 2330.

El Chess
AM flying to Alicante today for the Benidorm Chess Open, which is being held at Hotel Meliá at the Levante end of the resort.
I have entered the U2000, which has 177 entries, including seven other England-registered players.
There are nine rounds over eight days, with the modern standard Fide time control of 90 minutes and a 30-second increment.
