Thank you to all of you that took part in the 2016 Largs Viking Chess Congress, we hope you enjoyed your weekend and hope to see you again next year. Thanks also to the Vikingar staff for hosting the event and making us most welcome. The assistance we receive from Chess Scotland , from chess equipment to the website, is very much appreciated. Once again, a very big thank to John McNicoll for excellently arbiting the congress and to Bob Simpson, without his help the congress wouldn't be here.
