Nice photos. Brendan: good to see those. Doesn't quite make up for you mugging me in the opening in Round Four, though ;-)

The 37th annual Kidlington Tournament held last weekend (our traditional slot on the first weekend in February), attracted a very satisfying 170 entrants, with 22 starters in the top section (U225), 46 in the U180, 59 in the U145 section, and 43 in the U120. This was considerably up on last year’s total and the best for several years. A full list of prizewinners, the section crosstables, and a tournament report have now been posted on the tournament website: see the pages there under the ’2014′ tab.

My thanks go to everyone who helped make the tournament a success: to the players who competed, to the controllers (this year Tim Dickinson, Alex Holowczak, and Lucy Smith), to Tom Williams (Tournament Treasurer and much more besides), to Andrew Butterworth of Chess Direct, to Helen Hackett of Hackett's Food and Drink of Witney, to David Welch of the 4NCL, to Brendan O'Gorman for posting photos of the event online at http://tinyurl.com/Kidlington2014, as well as to various other people acknowledged in the tournament report, and those others who have posted here this week (thanks, Phil, and congratulations on your result!).

The booking for next year for Exeter Hall, Kidlington, has now been confirmed, and the 38th annual Kidlington Chess Tournament will therefore take place there on Saturday and Sunday 7 & 8 February 2015. We hope to see you there!
