I am up for it. I'd need to practice a little first, since I haven't played since I was in my early teens, I think. Just contact me on yahoo or msn and I'll play some people. That is, if I am not entirely busy.

I'd love to, but I haven't played chess for ages now. And besides, I was of the type who always ended up giving a kick to the board to avoid my opponent's victory. Now I would have to kick 'my screen' if I lost.

Still I might join one game one of these days.

I've been playing against some teenagers recently, and to my surprise I didn't do too badly; quite a lot seemed to come back.

I can't really say at what level we were playing, they are bright youngsters though.

BTW, when are we going to stop talking about playing and actually play?
