Hi msgreg

Thanks for that, I have had a previous read of OTME previously and will give it a proper reread shortly.

I trying hard to move away from following my opponent around the board (!) I've now began to get to the stage of making my own plans (albeit somewhat inferior or suspect at times).

Thanks for indicating where the level up series is likely to be sourced from. I've got quite a few books to go through and I keep finding interesting tsumego sites for looking at various positions. All i need now is the time to put the work in.

There's plenty of work ahead in learning this fascinating game, it really helps when you have likeminded people who are able to assist greatly in the process. I have to say the Go community is a lot accepting and accessible than the previous chess community which I was a part of for many years.

Much appreciated,

With regards

Mark
