It has been a long time

 While taking part in the 2025 Cairns Open, I began to wonder how long it had been since I played in an Australian weekend event. As the answer did not spring instantly to mind, it must have been quite a while. It turns out the last one I played was the 2018 ANU Open (a poor 2.5/6) , while the last event outside of Canberra was in 2016. 

At least for this event I didn't play too badly. Some poor decisions in time trouble aside, I generally played the right moves, ot at least followed the right plan. probably the best of my games was a nice attacking win with Black, using the Marshall Gambit.
