The memories just keep coming back... :)
In case you didn't keep note of it in your 'files', GMerov, Daryl's old West End club was at the Westboro Royal Canadian Legion branch on Richmond Rd, if memory serves.
Daryl's club went under after attendence dropped following the last bus strike. He felt it wasn't worth continuing (though I later suggested advertising locally, e.g. in the free Community EMC newspaper, or having promotional simuls [e.g. at Lincoln Fields] if he ever went back to set up a club in the West End).
Nevertheless, after that he soon set up an even more informal club, in a cafe across the street, but that club soon went under after ownership changed (or the cafe shut down - can't recall which).
In short, the Westboro Royal Canadian Legion on Richmond could be a possible location for the Ottawa Chess Club in future, if you wish. Replies:
