The D Team performed well against Northampton, though this will be a bare-bones report as I sat tight for the evening trying to forget about my allergy to dogs whilst being steadily crushed by Chris Ross.
Qais continued his recent good form, finishing off by skewering Nigel’s Q and K.
Callum received a generous draw offer from Shane late in the evening. I suspect that given more time white’s extra pawn could have been converted into a win.
I first saw Toby’s game when he was swapping of the last pieces to go into a K+P ending three pawns up. Dave resigned a couple of moves later.
And Lucian’s game I saw not at all. Sorry.
If any of the spectators (Peter?, Paul?, Mary?) can provide more details I’ll update this report.
