The good members of Phibsboro Chess Club have decided, as they usually do at this time of year, to take advantage of the fine Irish weather and spend some quality time at beach parties and barbecues. Consequently, they will confine their chessic activites to Monday evenings from next week (Monday, 8th June). Thursday chess will return in August – stay tuned to this channel for details.
