Internet chess and the downfall of the chess club...

And i thought i live in the middle of nowhere!!

But i have at least five clubs around half an hour and 20 in one hour with the car. Where the hell do you live?
Uslar, in the Solling region! :)

You probably never heard of either of these locations, and neither did I before we moved here ~1 yr ago.
hehe,

N early every summer i left some hours of my lifetime on the A7 near Göttingen in traffic jams ;-)

But have a look here http://www.schachbezirk3.de there are several clubs around you.
I believe of all these clubs listed there, the closest to my location would be the one in Bovenden, which is like a suburb of Göttingen ... being dependent on public transport, I could get there in no less than one and a half hours.
Paying the bus fee for every trip plus the monthly club admission would make me weep, since I live on a very tight budget (I have no real job, besides delivering newspapers every Sunday). I guess I simply have to accept that it's just out of my reach, but that doesn't really bother me because I prefer Online chess any day! :)

(The A7 is notorious for its daily traffic jams, ha ha! :D
You get so used to them, that I would almost miss them if they were gone. ;)
