Richard Jennings was competing at the Hastings international chess congress over new year. He scored 2.5/5 in the Christmas afternoon A tournament with an approximate tournament performance rating of 1780.
Incidentally David Fowler, former club champion at Bon Accord, is currently completing in the weekend major at Hastings.

I don’t remember winning the club championship, but if you say it’s true… 🙂

HI David, you won in 2003/4 – see https://bonaccordchess.wordpress.com/roll-of-honour/club-champions/ . I first joined the club in 2004, and I seem to remember seeing a notice on the club notice board indicating you had won on tie break.
I can’t work out what the tie break was from the grading results though

Ah – it’s coming back to me now. It looks like I won by default in the last round (Mike was probably having health problems then). And the tie break was the average grade of your opponents – I was helped there by Jonathan’s high grade. Which probably explains why I forgot about it – winning on a technicality, and not playing the last round…
