Meeting Face 2 Face
Yesterday i had a very enjoyable meeting with John Guetta (from NZDA) . We had a couple of coffees and a bit of a chat as well as a few games of checkers. John is one of the few people i have met in person and i was very impressed with him. A real gentleman, somehow i know this won't be the last time we have a chat

Its lovely that Danny and John met,and made the effort to meet.It would be good to get a tournament going between Australians and New Zealanders,as we are not too far away.

Jan that's a great idea. I have found 4 players so far and my plans are as follows (today, they might change) hold 1 or 2 fun tournaments this year and a serious "national tournament" next year. Once I have recruited a few players I would love to do an ANZAC Checkers tournamentkiwinurse wrote:Its lovely that Danny and John met,and made the effort to meet.It would be good to get a tournament going between Australians and New Zealanders,as we are not too far away.
