That rook v 3 pawns in round 4 was drawn , might analyse later in magazine.
Bobby's grave was nice and simple - no extravagance like you might get from some government official.
Today I am playing a 13 year old IM. Former world u-12 champ and ranked no 1 in world for U-14

I ended on 5.5/10 - made lots of mistakes in 2nd half of tournament.
Some of my opponents did well - the guy I beat was 1st = with 8/10 & the young 13 year-old is now a GM.
Was depressingly cloudy & rainy throughout and that eventually sapped my inspiration.
Work permitting I might play another tournament later in the year

Might seem a bit disappointed after the blistering start you made with those 2 GM scalps Andrew, but a tournament performance +60 against such a strong field is something to be proud of.
Well done!
