For a time it was one of the few events which awarded 3 points for a win and 1 for a draw...I shall miss those spring days walking in the rain to and from the Lomond Centre and gaining inspiration from the statues of the hippos!
I'd like to add my thanks to George, Walter and the others. I've attended the majority of the congresses at the Lomond Centre and shall greatly miss chess weekends in my native Fife.
Best wishes to George in your new environment.
