Date Notes
27 February 2020 First uploaded. The games were sent to me by Alan McGowan, who entered them from the bulletin. One score is missing (Lumsden-Hunter, from the last round) and another couldn't be entered completely because of errors in the bulletin (Hunter-Lancaster, Rd 2). If anyone can help with either of those scores, I would be grateful. Many thanks to Alan for providing this file for BritBase.
11 October 2021 I'm grateful to Jim Anderson who responded to my request (see above) and sent me the relevant game scores from the bulletin. I have entered the moves of the missing game Lumsden-Hunter (rd 6) though the last few moves required some interpretation and I'm not 100% sure of my reconstruction. I have also amended Hunter-Lancaster (rd 2) which now makes sense after reinterpreting an ambiguous move (20...Rxb2 rather than 20...Rxf4). My thanks to Jim Anderson.
