The New Venue

Stuart, John, Carl and myself went over to our new venue last night - the Fenton Sports & Social Club - to store the equipment and to sort all the pieces out into complete sets. The people there were exceptionally friendly and interested in what we were doing and seem to be very pleased to be hosting a chess club. The facilities are excellent - they even said they lay on sandwiches on match nights - and I think we'll get on really well there. We were very lucky to have the New Albert as a temporary home and everybody is very grateful to Lynn for allowing us to play there. However, I think it was always the intention to move back to Fenton as soon as we found a suitable venue and we've finally done that so it's now onwards and upwards for North Staffordshire's most  iconic chess club !!
