Casual Chess in August

Please join us for a casual day of chess at The Como Lounge in Witney, 
on Saturday, the 16th of August.

What: Casual games of chess
Where: Como Lounge, 34 Market Square, Witney OX28 6BB
When: 12pm - late, 16/8/2025

All chessplayers, friends and family are welcome.

There is a bus stop right outside the Como Lounge which makes it easy to 
get to, especially from Oxford (Gloucester Green S1). Plenty of free 
parking nearby too.

I will be getting there at about 12 but feel free to come along and 
leave whenever you like.

There is reasonably priced food and drink available.

Bring a chess set and chess clock if you can. (or download the free 
chess.com clock app onto a smartphone).

I look forward to seeing you there.
