London Chess Classic 2010 Dec 8th-15th

I know it is a long way off, but I do recommend attending this event if you can. Sue and I had a really good day there last year (this was my glowing report http://brightonchess.blogspot.com/2009/12/london-chess-classic.html) . To make things more exciting there is a change to the line-up this year, instead of Ni Hua will be the World Champ himself, 'Vishy' Anand! So the line-up is Anand, Kramnik, Carlsen, Nakamura, Adams, Short, Howell, McShane; as a British chess fan I don't honestly think one could wish for more, excepting possible the inclusion of the GingerGM ;-)
