English Chess Forum

I wish you luck in Tenerife but I don't know enough about your other ideas to offer any views.

Thanks Charlie. I looked at this a while back as an idea for my youngest boy and your money is way out. Maybe 200k might be possible for a decent place but don't let me discourage you. If you are going to buy something cheap, you can do but don't think that you will be DJing all over the island.

So, Charlie, are you investing 30k in this Tenerife project so it's an equal partnership or are you expecting someone else to be the money man.

Presumably So just agreed a draw in Round 3 with a view to regrouping for the next mini-match. Or, after the horrible loss in the second game, he couldn't cope with possibly losing in the third game.

Hi Danny - just take a breath sometimes before you post! I'd much rather have you on the site than not because it's good to have the profe...

I don't really understand your response but it hardly matters. There is nothing to be gained by arguing at this difficult time. I shall continue to read your stuff with interest as I said before.

Perhaps your last 7195 posts on the Forum (or, at least, a great many of them) are the reason! Don't get me wrong - you have a great deal of useful stuff to say and I read most of it with interest but your response to my attempt to be amusing just shows what a great opinion you have of yourself.

Justin, I am amazed that you are petrified at getting anything wrong

Hi John how about this offering then :) Fruit bat pie Little Jack Wong sat in a corner eating his fruit bat pie He stuck in his thumb and pulled out an eye and said.... oh my! oh my! :) Martin Well it's certainly an improvement although it does conjure up an unpleasant image to my mind.
