Our team is both very competitive (as you can see above :D) and verrrrry social. Everyone is welcome to join! Only requirements are you are 16 or over, you show a decent history of playing chess on the site, and you're a little bit nutty, or a lot nutty like me. :p

On March 1, 2010, I had the pleasure of interviewing Grandmaster Julio Becerra. You can hear that interview here.

Favourite quote/sayings:
"A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty." - Winston Churchill
I'm happy to say I am an optimist...
Where is the justice of political power if it executes the murderer and jails the plunderer, and then itself marches upon neighboring lands, killing thousands and pillaging the very hills? - Khalil Gibran

A friend of mine created this you.tube video for me.. I didn't ask him to do it, he kindly did it off his own back. Thankyou RedBull. The song added is one of my all time favourites which I listen/sing to frequently "Fields of Gold" written by Sting but sung here by the amazing Eva Cassidy, who sadly died of cancer at the age of 33.. big loss to the music world and to the world of sweet hearts. Rest in peace Eva.
one of my favourite escape songs...
the other Eva Cassidy song that I love to listen/sing to all the time.
