Gareth Legend

I am 51 this year, married,6 children and 8 grandchildren, you should see Christmas day !.

I love football, my team is Manchester United and I cant wait for the Euro finals in 2012, this is when I become my most patriotic watching England. I am one of the few Mancs that like to see Liverpool do well, strange as it may seem.

Iam still reasonably fit as I play squash ( Racket ball in America), my lads are still looking for their first win over me.

Well work ? I carry two jobs, one being a Book-keeper of accounts and also a Taxi driver when times get tough, which is quite often in these hard times. I always earn enough to survive and have the odd luxury like food ( my sense of humour) Anyway Its Health before Wealth in my book.

Ok Chess ! I love the game and my wife thinks I am addicted to it. Ive got to sign on and at least make a move in all my games but usually a few hours a night. I think I am an average player,"especially after playing on this site" but I can make the odd blunder with lapse of concentration, perhaps the beer i sometimes consume. Win or lose I love it.
