Well why is that the right way up?

My Moto G60 has 3 lenses on the back and one on the front. I presume this used the one that has 108 megapixels, which is just a silly number and not very useful in this light.

Don't think @Optimissed has too much to worry about.

Ustinov on diet?

@GQV1N do you know the singer St. Vincent? She's very good.

Helps if you want to go shopping together.

Amazing and thank you!

I think both torpedo and pawn sideways rules should be added.

Not a very good diet is it. There's a lot of muscle but I don't have a 30 and a half inch waist any more like I did for about 2 decades. More like 36. I really need to exercise more and eat and drink less

Now where was that whisky .... I had a bottle of Cardhu Gold Reserve single malt? Oh got it. never tasted it before a week ago. Asda had it for £25 a bottle and I thought I'd try it. Went right back for another one and one of Old Pulteney, similarly reduced.

It's only about the second time I ever posted one of me on this site. It'll be lost in the threads.

Probably the biggest reason why chess won't be solved. Too many distractions

I'm a fan of Laphroaig myself, as I really like the smokey peat notes.  And it doesn't hurt that the price is generally reasonable too.  Cheers!

Cheers! I like the Quartercask one.

I'm more than 3 times old enough.  Here's to being 21, 44 years ago lol.

"games that have been won by a successful (often sacrificial) attack on the king?"
++ A successful direct attack on the king can only succeed if one player neglects his defence, i.e. does not play optimally. Alekhine selected Bogolyubov not because he was stronger than Capablanca, Nimzovich, or Rubinstein, but because he was weaker.
Queening a pawn is at top level a more feasible way to win.
