    Hello Blitzfreaks! I predict 13 players will show up for Saturday's Blitz at Mom's Cafe (1 block east of Donlands Subway Station, 2PM). Why always 13? Well, if it's good enough for Garry...(!) Hey Vlad, could you please remind Peter to bring a copy of 'Mean Streets' with him? Thanks, see you on Saturday!

      My problem is that the parking at the back streets have become a 1 hour parking.

      The last time i played in the Saturday blitz, i won $ 40, from which i paid $ 30 for the parking ticket......

        Hi Erwin:

        It's only a few minutes walk from the Donlands Subway Station, if that works for you. Also, I think you can park on Danforth there with a ticket from the machine ( not sure of this ), and it is at least less than a parking ticket !

          Hi Bob,

          Thanks for the suggestion.

          Actually my decision is just to ask my wife to drop me off (saves travelling time =about 15 minutes from my home in Scarborough) then take the subway back home.

          I am just taking some time to study and prepare for the Albraham-Noteboom position which Roman Sapozhnikov used against me in the 4th round of the 2010 Canadian Open.

          Anyway, i will return to Mom's cafe soon. I just need to give some private lessons to help others improve their game.

          Cheers!

            Deciding to walk to my bank this evening, to draw some of my internet winnings which popped up like a mushroom in my account about 8 pm, I stumbled out on Danforth for my usual 10 minute hike to my bank just west of Pape. The ten minutes turned into a half hour as I found myself in the middle of the Taste of Danforth Greek Festival! Talk about crowd scenes! This was like trying to move about in a crowded elevator. Great food smells, though. Then there were the rides - a mini roller coaster and ferris wheel. And if you really want to chuck up your souvlakis, try the Crazy Surf ride - a two storey sideways loop designed to make you spew your baklava. Got a cast iron stomach? Then go for it!
            And of all things there's even a blitz chess tournament! Starts tomorrow (Saturday) at 2pm at Mom's Cafe. Don't try to drive on Danforth - its closed from Broadview to Donlands. Parking might be a problem. Take the TTC. After the tournament, go for the Greek food and the rides if you dare!
