Well, the plot is definitely thickening. I'm glad we seem to be moving through the opening at a fair clip, though I suspect things might get a bit less rapid soon. It's nice that both of them have already recognised the potential utility of scaring people with long spoilers.
So presumably we're about to see Andrew play ...h5, which ought to make things interesting. Given that Clement has spent quite a while telling us how little he knows about the English, is this going to come as rather a shock?
EDIT: Sorry, I can't read. 5...d6 and only then 6...h5.
