  1. That's my new codes through
  2. Never even thought to try that! I binned my France travel plans once I didn't get a ticket and booked for Georgia instead.
  3. Going to Georgia to move us from 10 to 12 points looks like it'll be the difference between our group getting tickets for the games.
  4. My takeaway from that statement was this and how early he managed to shoehorn in the "Billy and the boys" reference
  5. Thanks for all the organisation and smooth running! I'm (paakman01) going to sit out this next season as I'll be moving house in the coming weeks and there is a lot to sort there which will leave limited time for chess. Hopefully I'll rejoin in a future season and begin life from the bottom tier again.
  6. To round of Div B, paakman01 beats gkneil by resignation.
  7. Apologies, had 4 games on the go due to my mid-season break and was going to report them once all finished. Nearing the end in the final game, but for me at least it is just rearranging the deck chairs on the titanic!
  8. Thanks, wasn’t showing for me so just tried sending you one.
  9. Cheers, I’m back tomorrow and happy to play the games now, got two that I’ve just started and had challenges for but the other ones have disappeared.
  10. Apologies all who have sent me challenges. I’m away at the moment and not back until next week. Happy to forfeit the games if it’s easier for finishing the league than waiting to play them? Unlikely to make much difference to my dreadful season.
  11. New away kit from Inverness. I think it's a cracker and much better than our awful home effort this year.
  12. Well played, was too busy looking elsewhere to notice you were setting up for the win! Other games in Div B: paakman01 beats pnbmathematics arabjoe beats paakman01 Tough going this season.
  13. Division B paakman01 loses to markf268, N5_Spur, and gkneil. Things have not gone well this season! Well played all.
  14. I'll (paakman01) sit out the cup if possible please. The league games are more than enough for me at the moment!
  15. Cheers for the game, it was a very finely balanced contest until the blunder.
  16. Yours is a very fair summary of the game. I was pinned down by your Queen + Knight combination and for a while I was doing everything I could to get out of it. It was a really tough game with every move requiring a lot of thought so a bit frustrating to lose it with that blunder, just didn't see it at all. Well played! The analysis doesn't make for great reading for me, mistakes were made!
  17. Final Division B game I think, paakman01 beats cols407 by resignation. Thanks all for the games this season and Frank for organising!
  18. Invergowrie beats paakman by resignation. Daft blunder fairly early had me up against it and was never allowed back into it. Well played!
  19. Division B paakman01 beats arabjoe by checkmate. Very similar to the game invergowrie describes above, I blundered a knight and in a tight game while trying to defend against a check a mate option fell into my lap.
  20. Division B pakkman01 beats pnbmathematics & purplekangaroo by resignation. I tried a different opening against two players I've not had much success against before, seemed to do the trick. Both good games, thanks!
