We have “most” everything. With that in mind try this selection of Oka Cheese, lovingly made by Trappist monks. Add a nice Chardonnay and you will think you’ve died and gone to heaven.🤔👍
Really ?! 😏

Man, I'd like a hunk of that Oka, w/ honey dew melon and water crackers. yummy

I believe there are a few chess boards in the Tavern. I think it is very cosy to watch people use them. We also have comfortable armchairs and small tables and some good players too. Enjoy a game and a pint of beer or whatever you prefer.

I would also add that the Tavern is the only place I will visit in the GF except for the clubs - too much nonsense, too little substance for my liking.

Move 20? What do you see? The black K has Kxd6 for an escape square.
I liked the game because analysis gave me a rare ( for me ) !!
I get them often. But within my known opening variations.
It wouldn't be the first time I missed mate in 1 though

16. Nc3 looks better but after ....exd5+ white's in a pickle. That's the main line I was looking at. I was unsure what whites best response was. Engine likes Qxd5, which just lets me pin his Q to his K.

Indeed. The GF is the best place to find distinctive bespoke nonsense, however shallow.

On the subject of “deepness”. I am finding that I am having to dig deep into my investments to keep up with the tavern’s mounting expenses. Is anyone able to give me some “bridge financing” for about a month?🤔😲😉
