Whenever I see the word “claddah” I think of an evening many moons ago when at a little dive in St. Paul I went to hear an Irish band with an unknown singer named Enya.

NB: I’ll hold comments with solutions ’till the next day so there won’t be “spoilers” for others.

The third event of the 2024 Grand Chess Tour is underway in Zagreb, Croatia, the SuperUnited Rapid & Blitz. Format: 9 rounds of rapid, followed by 18 rounds of blitz. Fabiano Caruana is in 1st and my guy Wesley So is in 2nd. However, as I write, action is underway and I am on the road, typing in an airline lounge.

When you are travelling, you should wash your hands. But, heck, you should do that anyway, right?
