Just as a note - In the M.Horace - Z.Hoffmann game a6 does not lose the queen as it did in the Bloodworthy game does it? - Black can play Qxc6. Still down a piece though. Or am I in need of more coffee...
Nice one with Mr Barker though - pleasant looking pup too.
Edit - I snorted my coffee when I saw the chess scarf tie too. Good grief...
