1. e4
I'm red, and white takes his first move.

 
1... e5 2. Nf3
White gets his knight into play straight away

 
2... Nc6
I mive my knight so that if his takes my pawn I can take it straight away

 
3. Bb5
He moves his bishop to attack my defending knight straight away

 
3... Nb4
rather than move it back in to place, or back to block off my bishop I move it out of the way

 
4. c3
He moves his pawn forward to threaten my knight

 
4... Be7
Giving up on the knight I make my bishop's defence over the knight known....

 
5. a3
he moves another pawn forward, this I think is to counter my counter with the bishop

 
5... c6
I attack the bishop in a hope it will give me time to retreat my knight back to safety

 
6. Ba4
doing the only thing, White moves the bishop out of the way

 
6... Nd3+
I move my knight into a catch 22 situation, king or bishop,

 
7. Kf1
White moves the king out of the way

 
7... Bc5
rather than take the bishop I decide as my knight is safe for the next turn I'd bring my bishop into play for defence

 
8. b4
the pawn attacks my bishop, but won't be able to take it the next turn

 
8... Nxf2
going for bigger fish I put a catch 22 on the rook and queen

 
9. Qe1
White moves the queen out of the way

 
9... Nxh1
and I proceed to take the rook, I leave the knight here for the rest of the game, It is one of the factors of the whites loss

 
10. Ke2 d5 11. Nxe5
seeing a catch 22 being imposed on me, I move my queen to safety before hand also this is my first piece lost

 
11... Qd6
and force the knight to retreat

 
12. Nd3
Like so
