About Me:

Love watching football, international cricket and rugby. I'm attempting a PhD in education, looking at learning styles. I haven't played chess (until recently), for probably 30 years. It's taking a little time to get back into it. I lived in Zimbabwe for 3 years where I worked as a teacher. I was taught much of what I know by Mr Kgwadi from South Africa, and by one of the students, who, despite being only 16, was a far better player than I will ever be. He beat me 8 times in one night.
