Greetings pop pickers,
We were involved in the Lanarkshire Div One last night, it was an away match and here are the results.

Bellshill~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Cumbernauld
B Colin Black 1702~~~~~~~0-1~~~David W Ross 1731
W Wilson Carnie 1426~~~~~0-1~~~David Johnstone 1610
B George Loudon 1363~~~~0-1~~~George Thomson 1397
W James Cumming 1248~~~1-0~~~Robert Kelso 1298
Bellshill~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~1-3~~~Cumbernauld

David W Ross had a good win against Colin Black and I was playing
ex Cumbernauld player Geo Loudon. David Johnstone made us sweat a bit at the end as he looked as if he was going to lose on time in a fairly level position (perhaps not level enough to claim a draw) however his opponent then GIFTED him a BISHOP and the GAME, SET and MATCH.
Sighs of relief all round!!!
The Surprised look of disbelief on David' face when his opponent made the fatal blunder was a picture. He could not quite believe his luck.
