I have just booked a room at the Royal Hotel and they say the Chess Congress is on.
Phone them direct on 01631 563021 - you get a better rate than online.
I get my kicks above the waistline, sunshine

I'm going to see if I can extend my visit back to the UK for Team Alba's 4NCL division 1 debut in order to play this one - I have fond memories of staring out over the bay as my partner sailed off into the sunset past Kerrera while I got gubbed mercilessly by Paul Motwani!

Less than 4 weeks to go and no way to enter the congress yet available apparently. A hotel booking does not a congress make.

Folks,
Just to say Oban congress details are now available on the events list on the homepage.
