    This is a great way to play chess with your friends via e-mail.
    If anyone fancies a game I'm keen, I'm not very good but.
    I only started playing recently after seeing a photo of fidel playing.

    I used to be very keen. My son,Martin is learning but he is 12 and is more interested in Pokemon on the Nintendo
    He's got me hooked. To play chess on line. I have a link
    on the page I created for Martin. You will see that at the bottom of my web page which is in my id file. Click on yahoo games and that will take you there.

    Man's dearest possession is life, and since it is given to him to live but once.He must so live that dying he can say, all my life and all my strength have been given to the greatest cause in the world, the liberation of mankind
    Ostrovski

    Muriel Spark:

    If I had my life to live over again I should form the habit of nightly composing myself to thoughts of death. I would practice, as it were, the remembrance of death. There is no other practice which so intensifies life. Death, when it approaches, ought not to take one by surprise. It should be part of the full expectancy of life. Without an ever-present sense of death life is insipid. You might as well live on the whites of eggs.

    I can't play live but I can play via email.
    I'll start a game up and if you follow the link it'll take you to the site where the game is stored.
    You'll get an email titled-you have recieved a chess postcard from mike.
    It takes a few weeks to play so if you're not keen just ignore it.
    I'll get both your emails from your profiles.

    It's a bit slow over email, but I like it. You don't have to sit down for half an hour to play it, you just do it when you check your inbox.

    I'll play chess with you anytime comrade.

    I remember playing a game of correspondence chess (ie snail-mail) with a friend in Sydney ( I was living in Armidale at the time) - we got as far as 12 moves into the game before someone lost track of the game.
