Hello PCC,
ReplyDeleteI've been reading your blog for some time now (read: I like it). However, I find the new design (white text set against black background) too straining for my eyes. Maybe it's just me, or my PC. I'm just letting you know.
Peace and more chess!
I've been following your blog for quite a while now. I just want to inquire if you know some schedules of upcoming local chess tournaments like this magnolia chess fest?
ReplyDeleteThank you and have a great day!
