Spoken by great men:"Give me 20 divisions of American soldiers and I will breach Europe. Give me 15 consisting of Englishmen and I will advance to the borders of Berlin. Give me two divisions of those marvellous fighting Boers and I will remove Germany from the face of the earth." - Field Marshal Bernard L. Montgomery, Commander of the Allied Forces during WW2.
"The Americans fight for a free world, the English mostly for honour, glory and medals, the French and Canadians decide too late that they have to participate. The Italians are too scared to fight, the Russians have no choice. The Germans for their Fatherland. The Boers? Those sons of Bitches fight for the hell of it." American General, George 'Guts and Glory' Patton.

I see it just started yesterday. I don’t know any of the players. Do you have a favourite?
Hi Dan, I know some of them, not in person, and I don’t have a favourite now at the moment. Not a favourite as in Anand…e.g. but hope they will do well vs the GM’s.
Wow.. Skaak, gedigte, kuns, Afrikaans… Ek kan nie glo dat daar nog so ‘n mens op aarde is nie!
Hi Gert! Welkom op my blog. Waarom nie? Jy sal dit moet glo, want dis is als hier. Jy het musiek vergeet! 🙂
