I'm not afraid to fail, something good always comes out of failure. I am a sales director for an office equipment company, I live and work in Cardiff, Wales. I find that chess keeps my brain active. I won't time you out if you are a regular mover and I trust you will offer me the same courtesy. If the game is a lost cause I hope you will simply concede instead of shuffling around the board, to save us all some time. Good Luck in all your games.
