Hi Richard,
I don't know if you're a Braille reader. I got a book, a very old one, from
the library called How Not To Play Chess. It has some problems in it, too. I
don't know what they look like. They're designed to test how well you
understand what's in the book. The book's moves are in descriptive notation.
I've never tried to translate that into algebraic notation before. I think I
can do it if I sit quietly and concentrate.

Hi Jim,

Yes, the first 12 are so called warm up exercises.  There are 31 problems in

total and they steadily get harder so this will take about six weeks.

We just started week three and you can look at each previous problem in the 
list archives without answers if you like.

After we finish up these from the Evans book we will move on to others, 
maybe tactile problems.
