The chess set was quite beautiful, but they should have had a big screen or a diagram for the audience to follow. I gave up after a few minutes as it was hard to keep track of the position from the "stands".

I fully agree Palynka - although it was fun watching anyway (perhaps more for me since one of my friends was playing)

At least it didn't snow !!!!
