A whole bunch of Christmas Cracker Puzzles.
One by the Platov brothers should keep you busy.
It was the hardest one for me until I saw the final idea.

V and M. Platov (1914)


White to play and draw. As White you have to catch that Black e3 pawn.
Black cannot win with two lone Knights so spare no expense. Good Luck.

Merry Christmas Everyone. I’ll see you all in the New Year

I enjoyed the puzzles, both the pictures equals names and the chess puzzles. Only got one of the player names.
Tree-Porridge-Gnome-Hand and 2 anoraks and a sheep had me really stumped.

I wonder how you would even start with a name like Rameshbabu Praggnanandhaa?
That puzzle would probably fill the entire page!
