First of all I have 2 words for you....

Happy Christmas

This is for everyone, wherever you are on December 24 / 25 (christmas eve/ day).

So what are you looking forward to getting this year? If you can think of any good presents then please list them below in the comments section.

On this great site I'm almost at 1,250 rated at chess and I'm rated 966 in the chess 960 world of chess. This comes as no surprise really, in my opinion.

I am looking forward to Christmas day as it is going to be in Manchester, England, which is where my family are.

There is also New year to look forward to as well, so if anyone has any wacky ideas for a New Years Resolution I would like to hear them, so if you can't wait for my answer then I'm going to try and become a member of he S.E.S. for 2012.

I shall be keeping you up to date with monthly blogs during the middle of the months in the new year as well, so please comment away, as I say this is Zhane (probably posting a blog for last time during 2011)... See you next year.
