I played a lot of OTB and Correspondence Chess in the 1970's at a strength in the 180's BCF ( FIDE 2100 )then had a break until last year. I seem to have picked it up again quite quickly.

I have recently been made unemployed with almost no chance of re-employment so I find myself with a lot of time for my current interests (mainly Chess.)

My thinking is much slower now but I make a lot of effort time-wise, which accounts for my high Online rating and low Live Rating!
