Regardless of the brilliance of a strategy and despite the genius of the player, all it takes to ruin it is one moment's lack of focus.
The pieces were set out in style, and the moves gracefully made, but I must apologize for attempting to step one foot to many boards. The spoils of one victory savoured at an inappropriate time. Typical.
Indeed, carousels in the clouds fall hard and hard straight to the ground. Over-confidence guaranteed a misjudged move, and obstinacy ensured impending failure.
Highly unplesant, but still a wonderful time. A solitary victory pitted against a lone defeat.
If time was a chum, I daresay two victories in the bag. Alas, time is hardly swayed by chocolate cakes.
At least I ate that bar of lovely dark chocolate, Lindt.
