Vary your life and head north !

By Chess player demand I am again running the Chester le Street Summer Chess Congress at Park View School /Community Association, Church Chare, Chester-le-Street, Co. Durham DH3 3PZ .

My Contact details Email: [email protected] – five round Swiss with three sections, increased prizes in all sections. Open, Major (under 171 grade), Minor (under 136 grade) . Entry form and full details available from the ECF calender.

Sell it to the wife by advising her she can go shopping to the metro centre !

For the kids Beamish open air museum and the beaches ,castles , older teens night life in Durham and Newcastle.

For those single grumpy old men chess players, (and you know who you are ),plenty pubs and chess banter in the real world .

So off the sofa dust the books down and get ready for this chess event !
