Coffee, Tactics, Covid and other Nonsense
Cheer Up!
Don’t let either the virus nor our clueless political leaders keep you down! They can’t keep us prisoners for much longer! Freedom is just around the corner…in the meantime, keep dreaming of coffee.
A nice tactical finish!

Weird Shit
The global success of the NetFlix series Queen’s Gambit has been undeniable! In Thailand mothers are naming their newborn girls Beth, while chess clubs are springing up everywhere, training young ladies to play chess in the hope of catching a husband once the sex-tourism trade opens up when the lockdowns end.
Even Weirder Shit
Psychologists have been warning us for some time now that the lockdowns represent a growing threat to the mental health of the public. I thought that chess players would be somehow amongst the last to fall victim to this, but I appear to be wrong!
A small but obviously deeply disturbed number of chess players have joined together with aims to keep the lockdowns in place while arguing for ‘SUSTAINABLE’ chess moves and ‘CLIMATE NEUTRAL’ chess tournaments. Welcome to the Chess For Future!
