5. Gabriele Palmer (1435) 1:0 Julian Bedale (1128)
6. Neville Rowden (1244) 1:0 Ken Broadley (1038)

An excellent result against higher rated opponents, with great wins for Alex and (against a higher rated opponent) Laurie.

On Thursday 16 February our London League team suffered their annual loss against the all-conquering Wood Green.

1. Jonathan Rowson (-) 1:0 Conor Murphy (2537)

A fantastic win for Caspar against his IM opponent prevented a whitewash.

Many thanks to all for playing in both matches.
