Advantages: Complex and fun Disadvantages: Hard to learn
The thing I like most about chess is the name they give to the best players - Grand Masters, Haha, I would love to be a Grand Master. Unfortunately, despite playing chess since I was 7, I am not very good. You have it or you don't. I kind of do.
The Game
We have a board of 64 squares, alternately black and white. Each player has 16 pieces, which do different things. You line up your pieces in rows, 8 on the row nearest to you, and 8 in front of them. The row nearest to you goes like this - Rook, Knight, Bishop, King, Queen, Bishop, Knight, Rook (but the Queen always goes on her own colour, so the King and Queen may be the other way round). Then in front of each of those pieces there is a pawn. And what do these pieces do? OK, here we go
Rook - can move up and across the board for as many places as you want - unless another piece ...

Advantages: 335 days of sunshine. Disadvantages: Very little options re. package holiday resorts
out of date and may not include all the new motorways funded by the EU since Spain discovered that bottomless pit where all your tax goes! An easy way to ensure that you get an up to date map is to look and see if the A92 Almeria-Granada motorway is shown. If it is, buy the map. If it isn't, the map is at least 3 years out of date!

Advantages: it passes the time Disadvantages: I find it a bit on the dull side and I don't enjoy it much.
I first learned chess as a child - taught by my father, who as far as I can make out is a pretty good player. I played all the way through school, and was ... passable, never good. I find this game enormously frustrating and to be honest, I don't even like it much. I'm sure I'm not alone, so, anyone else out there who can't play, don't let it make you feel like some sort of intellectual misfit.
Chess works best when the players are of equal apptitude and think in much the same way. I've played with people who are about as good as I am - who can put together a strategy lasting three or four moves, can feint, and disguise attacks a little, and that works just fine. I find playing with people who have been taught is just horrible, (and yes, i do always lose, i generally play to see how long iI can last.)
I married someone who has ...
