You were lucky not to get infected, right?
I also really liked chess. I didn't progress as much as you; let's just say I was always a beginner. However, I've spread the word about the game. I taught all my children, including my oldest granddaughter.
When I was a teacher, I founded chess clubs and taught many kids. A very curious thing happened to me recently. A boy from my neighborhood told me that I had taught his father. It turns out his father lived in Mariara when I was a teacher.
Thanks for sharing, dear Hive account@janaveda . A big hug from Maracay.
