54. Bd8 Ne5+ 55. Ke2 Nxc4 56. Bxc7 |
56. .... Bxc7 - now the c pawns are traded off. Henry is also eyeing up a white p(r)awn on d5. I must remind you that prawns are Henry's special dish no matter on what platter and how they are served up. | ||||

59. ..... Nxd5+ - the white bishop is sacrificed to try and prevent my pawns reaching Glendadom. However, there are still two black pawns on the board and only one white one. I also have an extra piece. | ||||

68... a3 69. Kd2 a2 70. Kd3 a1=Q |
70....... a1/Q - However, with this move the mere sight of Glenda induces white to wave the white flag. I will have another endgame for you to peruse shortly. Kind regards - Joanne | ||||
