That reminds  me of the lady on television who said that she kept getting chess sites flashing up on her computer.......finally found out her 12 year old son had typed in pawn 3 times instead of porn..used to play alot,always wondered who invented the game as the piece movements are weird.

I used to play, I even used to be in the chess club at school.

My noodle isn't what it once was now though and so am not so good, now I end up losing my patience and throw a strop whenever things start going against me.

I played on the college chess team 30years ago, & my brain must have been addled then, so might give it a go.

GORDON: I'm just sending on the latest move in our chess game. My move is Pawn, right -- that's the little knobbly ones down the front -- Pawn to King four. Your move. Well, I'd better sign off now. See you,
Hol. Bye. (Waits some time and the image still remains on screen.)
How do you turn this off then?
LISTER: (Turning off GORDON) You were playing postal chess with him were you?
HOLLY: Well. A chance to lock horns with an intellect of that calibre I'd be a fool not to. Pawn to King four eh? He's a sly one.
LISTER: So who's winning Hol?
HOLLY: Well, he is really. That was the first move.
