27. b5 Nb4
27. ..... Nb4 - for one moment it looks as though I am gonna lose either my rook on c2 or my knight on a3. However, Rb2 takes my rook out of the line of fire and counter-attacks his knight. William took off my knight and then offered me that draw which would lead to an endgame where it would be a rook and pawn ending with just those kingside pawns. I accepted and was pleased to gain one rating point from that high draw! I will soon be writing another annotation about Q v 2 rooks so, more from Yours Truly later! Until then, have a good read - Kind regards - Joanne
