 | | Teyss: Hi moronovich,
Thanks for your note on my forum. Likewise, glædelig kjul og godt nytår! (Hope this is correct 😀) What are your plans for the festivities, family and/or friends? Do you have snow in Denmark? Here it's desperately rainy. We are in Netherlands with my partner's family, then we're going to mine in Paris for Christmas and new year. Year-end routine. All the best. |

 | | moronovich: Thanks a lot <Teyss> ! You almost got it right ;) Kjul should be jul (comes from wheel). But many points for the effort! Unfortunately we dont,most likely due to the climate changes, have this much snow these years ): But there is always hope. I simply love snow. The 24th will be with my beloved wife as there is only one family member, my sister,left and she lives is USA. But this is fine and we usually enjoy it, and to boot wife has 13 days of holiday. That sounds great with both visiting Nederlands and Paris and I hope you will enjoy the trip, the christmas, the coming of the New Year and your holiday. Perhaps you will enjoy it that little extra de parler francais (a Paris, naturellement) encore !? All the best and if not before, see you in 2025. |

| | Teyss: Hi moronovich,
I second <offramp> in his compliment to you. One of the rare times he didn't post something silly ;) Very merry Christmas to you and your wife. Intimate festivities are the best as you can truly share them with the one you love. |

| | moronovich: Good morning, dear<virginmind> ! It was a great christmas day and eve yesterday, which we both enjoyed so much ! And I wish you a Merry Christmas and a happy New Year ! Likewise I sincerely thank you for being you and all our exchanges during the year which I have enjoyed very much. I hope all is well in Iasi and send you both many hugs and some Hoka Heys, though it is not a danish/scandinavian expression ;) |
|
| Dec-25-24 | | virginmind: Good evening, dear <moronovich>, all the best to you and Hannah on this Christmas time of the year, when we all at least try to look for and offer the best part of us and feel closer to each other and find a bit of solace...God help those in need. May we all have news of more peaceful times next year. May we look more often around us. And thank you, God, that I've passed 60 with a rather good health, all things considered. It's great, dear friend, that you've been offering this place of gathering for such a long time. Hugs and hoping for many years ahead with warm reunions. |

Meget godt nytår, very happy new year to you as well as to your loved ones. (You can now with your wife make fun of the Frenchman who lives in Moulinsart and makes mistakes in Danish ;) Best wishes of health, happiness and success. Take care. |

| | moronovich: Hi <Check It Out> ! Thanks a lot and I could say the same about you ! And it is indeed fun to have friends around the world. I hope you have entered the NewYear in grand style and that many of your dreams will come through and I pray for a more peacefull world. |
|
| Jan-03-25 | | virginmind: Hi my dear <moronovich>, Christmas time has been great in the family, and I hope you and Hannah had had a very good time also. Likewise for the New Year's Eve. Surely looking forward to a lot of fine moments in 2025, here in your company (and why not others' too). Many thanks for all your kind words. Slowly preparing to leave the holiday feeling behind and start a new year at the job. Warmer than usual and no snow around here, what about at your place? La revedere. |
|
Jan-05-25
| | moronovich: Thanks my dear <virginmind> ! Happy to hear that your christmas was great and the new years eve as well and I hope you have shifted gear to everyday and job life ! We certainly enjoyed a silent new years eve and are both appreciating the first snow that emerged 5-6 days ago, but unfortunately has started to melt today ): But that doesn´t prevent me from following a danish weekend tournament of chess. Actually I enjoy it more, than all the nearperfect moves made by the top-ten ! All the best to you in good old Iasi, to Maria as well, and may your working days be celebrated as much as possible ! |

 | | Fusilli: May I interest you in my <morbid trivia>? Check out my forum! |
|
| Feb-22-25 | | virginmind: Hi my dear <moronovich> and I hope you're fine.It's been some time since we last talked, for which I am sorry. Its quite cold in here, about usual for this time, only that we really didn't have much of a winter this year, so it feels somewhat strange. Almost no snow to speak of. I hope at least you had a lot of snow at your place. I keep losing at online chess, reaching, I believe, an all time low in rating. But I guess my time will come, and for this I need a jump of 250 points (yes, this is how much I've lost). I dont feel more tired, I cannot say I concentrate less, I start playing as usual, only that I lose. This must not be overlooked. Other than that I'm fine. How about you? Any special news of late? Not much from my part. Hugs to you and Hannah. |

| | moronovich: Good morning, my dear <virginmind> ! Great to hear from you again. And funny : just as I was thinking upon you and how you were doing, your kibitz ticked in ! Not any significant news from here too. The days look quite the same, but Hannnah and I are having many fine moments in the company of each other. The prespring is moving on and we have come from minus 8 degrees to plus 8 in a few days. Small beatifull flowers here and there, signals that the winter is over. I dont follow chess that closely. Age and too many tournaments, I guess. Actually I prefer to see danish tournaments, with lower rated players, with whom I know/knew some of the players, back in the days. But the bicycling season has started and this is my biggest passion. Really looking forward to the classics that start next month. Sorry to hear about your chess, but dont you think the wind will change in a few months ? And if you have the time and energy there is always the good old advice : Excercise tactics, tactics and tactics ! Anyway, I wish you the best of "luck" in your comback ! That was it for now and I send also many hugs to you and Maria. See you up the road. |

Apr-11-25
| | moronovich: Good afternoon my dear <virginmind> Besides some (the usual ones) boddyissues, all is well here and the spring is slowly and steady approaching, something the danish people really need after the long winter and the murky times we live in in general. But what about you ? Long time not talking and I sincerely hope that all is well and you do enjoy life as much as possible. So please give my greetings to Maria and a big hug to you ! p.s. Really looking forward to sundays "Paris-Roubaix" ! |
|
| Apr-11-25 | | virginmind: Hi my dear <moronovich>, I'm fine, thank you, it's quite some time indeed since I didn't post, the blame lies on me, of course. I played chess all the time, and all I can say about the results is that they are not encouraging. I did tend to fare a bit better, but not as I would like. I also followed to some extent all the tournaments available live on the internet.
Thank you for the kind words and I return the greetings to Hannah. I am glad that you are fine, generally. Spring has arrived, but in the past week or so winter has decided not to leave before giving us some more snow and chilly temperatures.
I send you both a big hug. |

| Apr-12-25 | | virginmind: At the European Championship for Women in Rhodos, Irina Bulmaga placed second, after losing to the winner of the event, Teodora Injac. Bravo! |

|
| Apr-19-25 | | virginmind: My dear <moronovich>, let me express my sympathy for you on the occasion of this Easter celebration to begin shortly. I hope our communication here will remain steady and bright in the years to come. Chess is keeping our minds alert, and our souls warm. Hugs. |
