Round 5 results

December 9th, 2008

Round 5, held on Tuesday 9th December 2008, started with a minute’s silence for IM Bob Wade of Athenaeum, who had sadly passed away since round 4. His club captain, Stephen Walsh, also said a few words in moving tribute.

Dave Chambers kindly continued his splendid Christmas tradition of bringing a bottle of whisky to round 5 for everyone to share: appropriately, he had found one produced by a distillery just a few miles from where Bob was born in New Zealand. Thanks Dave!

RIP Bob Wade, 1921-2008

December 6th, 2008

It is with great sadness that we note the recent passing of IM Bob Wade at the age of 87. Bob was a regular player in the LBCL right up to the time of his death, and we will all miss this unique, kind-hearted and brilliant man, whose contribution to our game was so extraordinary.

We can, however, draw solace from the fact that Bob enjoyed a long life, and remained mentally sharp and able to play the game he loved until the end. Rest in peace, Bob.

Welcome!

December 6th, 2008

Hello and welcome to the redesigned website of the LBCL! More content will be appearing here soon, so please watch this space!
