Congratulations to Alex McFarlane
I'm not sure if this has been widely reported elsewhere, or even if this is the correct forum to record such a development, but I note that Alex has been elected as President of Chess Scotland.

Of course it is, and an excellent choice I'm sure.
If you want a picture of the future, imagine a QR code stamped on a human face — forever.

Re: Congratulations to Alex McFarlane
Thanks everyone.
