That sounds really cool - I am a member of Hull chess club (far away) - We hire a church room but our equipment is pretty good!

The best thing though is that everyone is really nice, encouraging and helpful - on the odd occasion someone brings a book.

I visited the chess club in 1990 (i think), I was working in Hastings at the time as a joiner refurbishing a whitbread pub up.

I recall also buying some fischer vs spassky WCC 1972 books, which i still have
