Should reboot that game and just call it the hun edition because they dafties would folly folly that mob aff o' any clifftop of their choosing.

This is a normal thing SP, not the mutation but the kids showing us up at gaming. Cos I've been addicted to f1 and fifa for years my boy never did get the better of me on those 2 or chess. I love a game of chess but it appears to be dying out which is a shame as it's a great strategical game. At school I had to face a choice , play for the fitba team or the chess team ( no competition there) but heres a wee snippet of trivia that'll shock a few . The last time I was beaten at chess was at primary school by the then Scottish champion Gerald Bonner. He set up 20plus chess boards on tables shaped like |_| that and hed play a shot opponent would play one and hed move onto the next player. He had all of us for check mate on no more than his 5th time round so 20plus check mated in 5 or so shots except for Brother Anthony who held him to a stalemate. Obviously I'm sure idve been beaten by now if the game was still popular but that's a wee claim to fame for me. 😎
Quite like the concept of chess, but I was a bit too gung-ho to be any good at it.

I think it was the thought of sacrificing the queen that curtailed my prospects of being any good at the game
