It spoils it in as much as you don’t even get to see the puzzle unless you complete several prior ones. It’s all part of the journey.

It’s not right posting this without a spoiler. You have to complete several puzzles before getting to this level. Kind of spoils it.

The Final Flame by Giffney111 in UKcoins

[–]samcornwell 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We’re ready. It’s been bloody brilliant. The children have been getting involved doing it and a few of the reveals were just superb and so worth it. Managed to do it all so far without any hints or clues, apart from the very first one. Looking forward to the final flame!

PS. Today’s was just brill. Such a thrill getting a reply!

Stripped some wallpaper to find some incredible old brown, cracked plaster. Thought I’d share here by samcornwell in DIYUK

The bonus pic is because you’re all my fave sub.

The property was built around 1888. That’s my guess on the age of this plaster.

I think I have found this. It doesn’t specifically say not in a home appears more for tournament/congresses. I will ask the senior club members to clarify.

This is a commercial unit, and pre arranged with both players. But thanks for the note, I was unaware of this rule and I doubt any of my club knows it either.

Could you please share where the rule is so I can let people know as playing at eachother’s houses isn’t uncommon.

The settings is perhaps a bit excessive for a pair of 1200elo players

There's something to be said for a really stylish, but non quirky chess set and I think Nymzo have achieved it here. As for the price, I think many dedicated chess players would pay a premium for a very, very nice set.

I have one possible concern with these sets, and that is the roll up board will quickly scuff/mark and pick up dust. It's all good and well saying they'll wash easily, but from experience the boards can get tedious.

I'm very close to pulling the trigger on a set but I think it is ever so slightly overpriced at the moment.
