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 1971, my ECF is 1955 and my ICCF is 2374.

Chess Tip Of The Day 577
In a position where you have to look for a plan, think first about what kind of pawn-play you should be aiming for. If no pawn-play is in prospect, ask yourself what to undertake with your pieces.
