I'm just getting into playing chess. Just for fun basically BUT always wanted to be better. Any advice while playing me a game is welcomed!
Guess I can say I used to Skydive (550 something jumps, over 14 yrs), scubadive, a few intro flying lessons Cessnas & ultralights. Now I just play guitar (acoustic), fish and chess on-line and at a chess club (OTB games)..oh and work! hahah
