After a three year hiatus of “The Quarterly Chess Society”, last night saw the advent of the new “Saturday Night Chess Society”.
It was fn excellent.
We need to thank George for getting the ball rolling again. Hopefully it sha’n’t be another 3 years til we convene again. Perhaps July …
Doors were at 1900hrs. The participants were:
The Host
MPM
Bob Nicoll
Monsieur Mechanic (Bob Berry)
George Kneeland
Michael F Buckley
As ever, better documentation should have happened, but, we have these photographs as proof of the Good Times:
The original “Friday Night Chess Society” began in 1996 and met one Friday a month until July 26th 2002.
The “Monday Night Chess Society” was formed on April 28th 2003 and ceased to exist after June 16th 2003.
Both Society’s convened at Doug’s. There was one expedition to Bob Nicoll’s place in Arlington sometime in the late 20th Century.
“The Quarterly Chess Society” was formed on September 7th 2008 and met at The New Great Hall by the Sea. The final meet was on March 6th 2011.
So begins the next chapter, a new society, “The Saturday Night Chess Society”.
Join Us.

A big shout out to the host for a job well done. Hopefully the first of many more to come.
There seems, 2 have been, A mix-up. I never received, my invite.
They all said you wouldn’t make it.
Maybe “next time”.
Fuck them all, I’m making it !!! Now, that I’ve been, put in my place, can we, get things back on track ? That’s Y, I had, an aneurysm/stroke ( 2 get “back on track”, after I was veering off, & heading 4 another cliff ). I AM.
