Final:
I was considering approaching the National Museum of Scotland to see if they would consider allowing us to play the final in the exhibition area holding the Lewis Chessmen (with a small partition) – perhaps involving the press? Please let me know if you think this is a good idea?
I’m keen to get this played before the end of the month so that all games can be submitted before the July grading deadline. If you are potentially in the final please could you let me know which weekend dates suit (provisionally we have Sunday June 20th).
Round 2 Results:
Mike Ridge 0.5 – 1.5 Shivan Murdochy
Johnny Marr 0 – 2 Keith Aitchison
David Archibald 1.5 – 0.5 Mark Sanderson
Rod Cranston 2 – 0 Robert Horne
