     I have only recently started to go out and play. I am not a club player
as the membership is too expensive (as a Jazz musician I don't bring in a
whole heck of a lot [yet]). I've spent most of the last two years with my
nose in chess books or on a chess computer though for the last couple of
months I have been playing players in an informal setting.
