I have resumed play after many years! I am looking to learn, develop and improve my opening, mid and end games whilst learning new styles of play. I like to carefully consider my moves, so try to keep to just a few parallel games.

I also like to play games through to their destined conclusion, it is rare I will resign from a game (even if I am clearly losing) and I appreciate players that offer the same courtesy. You never know when a stalemate may occur! I also think the end game itself can be very interesting, especially at my level of play, and I very much enjoy defending until the end.
