I used to play on the Yahoo boards.
Had a pretty good record.
Most of the games I lost were because I fell asleep and timed out

Some people are trying to convince me to go to a big tournament being held in Ballarat next weekend, but I want to chill out and watch the Moomba festival in Melbourne....I'm becoming a right lazy ozzie.....after being a right lazy pom for years

I suspect it's also because you have many years experience of working against the clock.

A monk at the school I used to work at had a correspondence game going on (by snail-mail ). He must have been playing that damn game for years

It was OK. We spent most of it on the road heading back home but that's OK - road trips are good

We went up to Yeppoon to see Biggy and family

To be honest that drive isn't overly interesting but that doesn't really matter. We're heading for Sydney in June so that's another road trip. We're gonna go Pacific Hwy there and New England Hwy back so that could be interesting.
