the thing is that this repeats year after year.
and the same people make the same mistakes again and again.
Do they even have a computer ? do they have internet ? do they speak english ??

it seems they have no computer, no internet and don't understand english.

if they would organise the pig chamionship in the netherlands it would maybe be

but the hotel has - nevertheless a swimming pool. that counts of course.
swimming is more important than computerchess.
