Extremely tense match which could have gone either way. In the end I edged it 8.5-7.5.

Those who missed Hull after last year's British may well enjoy this reminder. All happening on the Humber, with the English Women's Ch. end of this month and then the @4NCL Hull International October half-term. #chess #Hull

Played for @YorkshireChess against Surrey in the finals of the County Championship today.
I won (not sure I deserved to), Yorkshire won 11-5. We win the 100th County Championship - and hold the impressive Lowenthal Trophy which is apparently valued at £70k.
