Have to leave for a fortnight (or so)

Hi everybody!
From Wednesday on I'll be off line. The bad news is that I need my
ankle & wrist operated (that's why I can't chat, too fast typing
required, have bought a mic for future use). I'll stay in hosp for 14
days or so. Thereafter both body-parts will be in cast. Grrrh!
And what's the good news then? I won't be playing any chess, unless
the nurse on night-duty is in for a game. No, seriously: I'll be taking
some good books with me, to study -at last!- some chess more or
less in depth. It's about time too.
Trust you'll be enjoying your games in the meantime and when I'm
back on line I hope to have improved my play to some extent.
Cheerio for now lasses & lads!
