Last move 1d 16h ago Bio
Scottish, but have lived in US and England but now home. Part time commercial consultant for healthcare companies in UK, EU and US. Hobbies include chess, football, American football and reading history, politics and occasionally fiction.
Married with 3 grown up 'kids'.
Started playing chess as a boy with my dad and then with friends, RHP is a godsend and I have been playing here on and off since 2007, I try and play each day if I can be bothered. Never studied the game in any way, I just play which probably explains some of my more erratic moves! It is just fun for me.
I take skulls and assume you will too.
Happy talking during games.
