Hay Festival

Post by Matthew Turner » Sat May 25, 2013 5:07 am

I'm going to the Hay Festival next week and they have had some famous chess players there in the past. How do you follow Kasparov and Spassky? :D

Popped into Hay yesterday and there were a fair few people playing chess, but nobody I recognised. I should be there most of today, but I am hoping the weather improves a bit.

No luck today Mathew. Had to cancel a planned visit, because of the weather.
