G'day Bruce,

I truly hope your well.

Firstly I would love to thank you for stepping up to the plate and taking on Team Perth WA under your wing. It takes a special kind of person to take on such a role and I am very glad you did. I wish you all the success in the world, thank you so much.

Please don't feel threatened by my presence as I have no desire to take on any Administrative duties for any club but I keep a keen eye on our club Perth to see how well they are doing. Over time I have built up many chess friends in the club and they keep me up to date with how things are going. They all say you are doing a good job so I am very please that your transition is going smoothly. As you know I am not in the club and am banned for reasons I am bewildered by but anyway, I always look at the matches and watch the build ups and look at the scores of matches that are taken place and as a fan and an admirer... I smile in such joy at our success.

Secondly, I want to be transparent with you and I believe communication is key. I asked Leon if he could post the 2019 CITY KNIGHT AWARD in the club a while ago and he said that Kookie and co would not publish the 2019 CITY KNIGHT AWARD. I was disappointed and I feel if anything, this hurts the club and no one else. The club needs as many motivational approaches as it possibly can and most important of all, the members of the club should be reconised for outstanding achievements and inspire others in their wake I believe. Neo was ecstatic when I posted to it to him first.

I realised that if awards are not going to be published then information to the team on other matters of importance will not be either. I felt my hands were tide and the only way it was going to happen was if I did something about it. I am truly sorry if this potentially upsets you but if you read all the information it is only positive and good for the club. I have no desire to lead the team again my heart only wishes you all well.

This message is long and I have a few other matters I will need to address to you in explanation.

For example:

Tick_Tock is my father

Team Western Australia is a forum club for Perth and not a real club. Look in the forums and you will see it is all Perth's.

I will be in touch again on these and other matters but for now....

Below is the information sent to every member of Perth WA except Kookie who is the South Australian Super Admin. She always copied my ideas and put them in the South Australian club and she is not getting that luxury ever again... smiles.

My warmest regards to you Bruce,

UD
