A huge loss ; an amazing man who inspired thousands of young chess players - including me!

Returning to competitive chess after having children I have found extremely tough! Delighted to have my form back and play some good chess this weekend at Scarborough- chess-results.com/tnr656228.aspx… ♟

Well done England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿!

Mike was such an influence for me ever since 1966 when I played and won the very first UKCC! I also played for Wey Valley which he ran for many many years. 🙏♟

Enjoyed playing against Ukrainian refugees and Bolton players in a simul yesterday!

In KS2 collective worship today we had a visit from Sarah Longson who shared her passion for chess, promoting our new chess club. I was so impressed with the children’s knowledge and vocabulary. #castling #CHECKMATE #ChessClub a super opportunity! ♟️#WeAreBrightFutures

Growing up so fast 💕💙!

Happy 3rd birthday to our gorgeous Isabelle! Wow ; where did 3 years go? 🎉🎁💕

Magnus Carlsen missing a mate in three against Vidit! Does he not know his Petrosian classics? 🤔

Great afternoon of chess! Well done to everyone who took part!

I enjoyed commentating tonight. Will check in on results in the morning… I wonder who can stay awake and okay through the night…

Having sorted everything for tomorrow’s gigafinal - next question is what to wear 🤔 👠? Very excited to see everyone and looking forward to seeing some fantastic chess ♟️.
