Although it leaves the centre very open, i had got rid of my isolated central pawn AY} 12.Qc2 Qb6 13.Bd3 Re8 14.Bg5 {not too unhappy about this - I was happy to sway off the light for a bishop and looking towards the end game  I tight the bishop pair would be better AY} Bd7 15.Bxf6 Qxf6 16.Bxh7+ Kh8 17.Bd3 Rac8 18.Rac1 b5 19.Qb3 a6 20.Ne4 Qh6 {Not the best move - I think Qe6 and wrapping off queens may have been better.AY} 21.Rcd1 {Tom should have taken the rook on c8 i think.AY} Be6 22.Qb4 Be5 23.g3 Bxa2? {Not sure this was so good - I think b3 might have been a good reply by white.AY} 24.Nc5 Bd5 25.Be4 Bxe4 26.Nxe4 Rc4 27.Qe1 Bxb2 28.Nd6 {I saw this a knight fork and wasn’t Too worried, but I didn’t see the follow up one - however I still came out up the exchange.AY} Rxe1 29.Nxf7+ Kh7 30.Nxh6 Rxf1+ 31.Kxf1 gxh6 32.Rd7+ Kg6 33.Rd6+ Kf5 {Not sure about this move - was going to lose spawn however I did things, but I was keen to get my king over the other side to assist the passed pawn. AY} 34.Rxa6 Bc1 35.Ra1 Ke4 36.Ke2 b4 37.Rb1 Kd4 38.Kd1 Ba3 39.Kd2 Rc3 40.f4 {Tom offered a draw here. Time was getting low (9.46 for white, 12.03 for black), but I felt i was winning so decided to play on. AY} b3 41.f5 Rc2+ 42.Kd1 Kc3 43.f6 b2 44.Rxb2 Rxb2 45.h4 Rf2 {White resigned. 
A really good game, one of the most enjoyable and hardly fought games I have had with Tom - lots of good play on both sides. Thanks. Anna} {#R}
