Short scores.
Probably the closesting he’ll get to the real “Score”.
Heh!
Easy with the exclamation marks – Nigel would outplay you, no problem.
“Nigel would outplay you, no problem.”
Only with Rosey Palm and her 5 sisters.
Of course, that’s the way to mate the rookies!
I wish Nigel would write a book titled Nigel’s Shorts. Would be a nice title for his quickie wins/losses.
