I don't dislike you, at least not really, I'm just still mad at you, and I believe you know exactly why.
There are a lot more pictures to follow. Peakite, if Russ puts up that close-up he tricked me into, I need that picture I took of him where he looks really retarded... know which one I mean? 😉

I love your location! Who's got the skinny on all games played? Who beat who... lists like that. I don't think any of you guys were taking PGN notes... That would be interesting.

Aye 😀

Just remembered a classic quote from Shavixmir last night; when describing how crap Metallica are;

"I'd rather have Ahmed Al-Jazerra chop my balls off with a rusty nail"

Spent five minutes laughing at that both then and now.

Fantastic 😀! Honestly, I don't remember large slabs of it and didn't wake up until 3 this afternoon, but many thanks to James for setting this up, as well as to Russ for the pizza and drinks. This confirmed what an excellent community we have here.

The award for having an actual personality which is indistinguishable from his RHPersonality goes to Shavixmir. May your nipples thaw to a normal level of softness.

The chess highlight for me was when we played 4 man team chess where you give your team mates the pieces you've taken in your game, while recieving pieces they've taken. At one point i had 4 rooks, 3 bishops (all black bishops!!) two queens. There's nothing like having mate in one to find your opponent puts a pawn on the board and all of a sudden you're loosing a Queen instead!! 😀

Hey Shav, I almost trust your outrageous Rubik's-cube related claims now, as I've posted in P&P. I can't believe you're probably an honest man; it's just beyond the scope of imagination.

All down to the Slow Pawn here, aye ??

After you kicked my butt twice James I had to find a way of getting my own back (guys, you should have seen our second game, I was a bishop up and James left with no chance at all ... and then out of nothing check-mate for Boris - Well played)

Lets have another meet-up latest in February (I mean London is ...[text shortened]... stayin over (since I can't get to grisp with the trains anyway in my drunken state :-)
