Boerboel Guy
Member since Dec-16-07 · Last seen Jun-04-25
I'm South African and have been in love with chess since I was ten years old. I am a 'big dog' person and love the Mastiff breeds. The sign on my car's back window reads "If it's not a Boerboel, it's only a dog". I am also a bit of a Squash (the game!) fanatic and play three times a week. I also enjoy singing and playing the acoustic guitar. I also own over one hundred chess books...some quite old...like Staunton's Chess Player's Handbook (1915)...and others from the 1950's.
