Yes, it’s opening day of Advent, and only 24 days left till Christmas so perhaps we should dedicate a particular opening to the month of December, one which offers the opponent many gifts obviously. How about the gift of a horse? 1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. Nxe5 [C44] ?

Seriously though, December gets a bit busy for me (still have the Christmas shopping to do of course!) so it will be all I can do to keep up with the chess study and I’ll probably not be posting much until the new year.

In the meantime, see how much you know about the true Christmas by taking this Christmas Quiz and as always feel free to leave your comments!

Have a good Christmas and New Year!
