Glorney Bd 1: draw for Andrew
Ian is a pawn up, so things look OK there.
The fire alarm has just gone off - just a test, but not at the brightest of times.

Four matches won out of four!
But this afternoon we face England. Morale is high, so I think we are ready. The coaches are putting their databases to work preparing the troops.
Afternoon round starts at 14:30.

Here are a few photos from Donald's camera:

To add to (or perhaps finish?!) the great gastronomy debate, the hotel are providing the same deal as they do for the Junior 4NCL (see last two photos in the batch). There's also a Tesco 500m away.
On another topic, it's fantastic being involved in my first Scottish Faber campaign for a long time. And a pleasure to work with three players who obviously enjoy their chess so much.

A great start! Just a bit of background stuff....
We feel we are well prepared and I personally was hoping we would get England first in the hope that they would underestimate us. However, you can't have everything but I am obviously delighted to be off and running and a few people on the phone are too. This is going to be much tougher this afternoon and Donald and the coaching team are trying to keep everyone focused and their feet firmly on the ground. We are under no illusions the task we face in this match,
Robin.
