I'm Alan. I learned to play Chess around 1965, and played at school a lot, winning some important tournaments. I was captain of the school team for my year. But after leaving school, I didn't play Chess much at all until joining RHP in April '05.

I send reminders for move timeouts in friendly games and in clan games. I claim timeouts in tournament games though - because everyone else does it.

As we get into summer, I might be slow at making moves. Thank you for your patience.
