@simgrund - violin is also my all-time favourite - have daughter who made it her career and she played absolutely beautifully - her playing is in a few films (last one 'Skyfall'), as she worked in Abbey Road and other Studios in London. Hollywood films get sent there to have the music played to them.
Unfortunately she's got cancer and won't be long for this world. I am having a hard time, but, of course she and her family are having to go through this to the bitter end - every day . . . . I can put it aside for a while - but we zoom usually on Sundays - not today though, so I am worried.
After she left here as a teenager, I was unable to listen to violin-playing, for a long time, as I always listened to her practice session and sometimes accompanied her on the piano. I missed her and her music a log; I have re-canted now and for some time now I can listen to this instrument made to tear your heart out - it's a magnificent instrument,
You have quite story to tell! please post picture of chess set.
Go well
