Thanks, Angus

I have suggested to CS man Board that CS should strongly consider joining CCPR. I'm not really sure we'd get lots more cash for Scottish chess, but we would get access to Bingolotto, as far as I can see, and more importantly this looks exactly like the kind of umbrella UK-wide sports organisation that we should join (like the ECF) as chess needs much, much more public profile.
