A s I am sure everyone will have assumed the NEWMC has closed and so the Chess Club will not now be open until further notice.
I personally have never played online chess but I understand that there are plenty of options – see for example the ECF Site and Chess 24 for details. If anyone has a favourite site which they can recommend do please let everyone know here.
I hope all our members and their families manage to stay healthy and let’s hope we can get together to play over the board chess again before too long.

Editor’s suggestions:-Amazingly, the candidates are still going strong. Chess24 have a very good line up of comentators including Svidler, Short and Magnus himself! – a very good distraction if your homeworking is becoming tiresome.
4NCL are going online if anyone wants to organise some teams – might be worth a look.
Be lucky, Steve
