Desmond Carrington

[gemma-the-husky]

I was off to play Chess last night (draw against a slightly higher graded player -Queens Indian Defence) - and Desmond Carrington was on

He played a Russ Conway thing (Roulette, it might have been) and I See The Moon by the Stargazers - Really cheered me up!

Who's Russ Conway?

I hope you countered with the Pescilian defense of QB4.

He was a British honky-tonk pianist popular in the the 50s and 60s. I am surprised you don't remember
