Autumn Cup Catch-ups - Layla Takes B Grade, Ross takes C

2 catch-up games in the A Grade - Anthony Ker won against Arthur to finish on 4/5, and Russell Dive hauled himself off the bottom of the A Grade after a protracted struggle against Michael Nyberg.
One game left here, Arthur against Russell. It's a blood-thirsty group - only one draw so far!

As if anyone doubted, Layla has taken the B Grade with one game left to play. Peter Stoeveken blundered against her after 19 moves. Alan Aldridge will be quaking in his boots!

The crucial game in the D Group never took place. Troy Lamerton simply did not show up, so the table still looks like this:

I stayed late on Thursday, and stole some game scores that had been left behind. Sorry I haven't annotated them.
