| Just had a look at the Live Games. They're over already. We lost on Boards 2-4 BUT won on Board 1, where Craig P beat Vasiukov. Wonderful. Very well done, Craig. | |

Thank you. W/o your signposting, I would never have found this. I was right. See Clause 8.4 - CS members 'who are not Council members may attend meetings as observers'. George |
