Anand v Carlsen...3 weeks away.

...he will celebrate his 44th birthday on the 11th December - hopefully
the match will still be on then and there has not been a white wash.

Magnus was born on the 30th November 1990 so he will be 23.

There will be dual birthday parties in both camps during the match.

Like Trev I would not be surprised by an Anand win though Carlsen
appears to be the favourite.

I bet you R D Kobe will have his book of the match out before the end of November.

Great, day off work, sat down to watch it and all the video streams have crashed. Lucky I have my android app 🙂
