A little late, but I have to welcome you and encourage you to keep it up and keep going. In a few words: "wise choice"!

Thank you for your kind welcomes, and lively enthuiasm with my 'Chess Club' idea. Thankfully there's a rather hard school chess league in Surrey, it's time to take the game to them.

Good luck and I hope you can get a School Chess Club going on.

I look forward to reading about how you get on!  Good luck!
