Ha ha, everything you've said about the game of chess is true, Julia. I do play chess and taught my son in London to play. We play occasionally by email, or some other magical method. I play it on my phone at night, with a robot, and lose every time, that or I fall asleep. Monopoly...ugh!

Lovely scribble, lass. Enjoyed it. Made me wonder why the hell I do play the game!
