I was hoping Mudflapper still had his password that was the only time he's ever spoken any sense.

Who says I don't?

he was offering to pick it up you were that good last time. & we Know Old Smeg is a taker!

He's not fussy either way if you wave a five Euro note at him.

You can't tempt me to pick up the soap, so don't try.

Do we need to have a whip round to get you a new obesity grabbing aid?

So you're out on parole then. It's only a matter of time before you're banged up again.

[MarillionFan]

So are you feeling a bit exposed now that you're officially (pending AtW's confirmation) the nastiest drunk on the forum?

When I play chess now, it makes me think "this must be how Alzheimers sufferers feel".

[eek]

I played a lot as a kid, did the "tour" playing tournaments in various schools and even was selected to play for my county once. When I try these days it just frustrates me. I can remember being good but am useless so I'm constantly aware of how badly I'm doing.

It isn't really chess if you just play the same move over and over

+1. We had a curate who I often played chess with. Even though I knew I'd forgotten a lot by not playing in 15 years I was scarily bad.

I only discovered later that he still practiced and played for his country as a child.

[d000hg]

Ditto. Was primary school champ, but fear I may have regressed since then.

Or is he aluding to the fact that OG is playing forum Chess? We all like moving the pieces around but there's a big difference between tactical / aggressive play and deciding to drop your trousers & lay a big turd down for all to see & then say 'your move'.
