Any chance of an explanation of the rules for those of us not familiar with the game?

Have a look at last years thread Mornington crescent with search facility on this site, also look up Mornington Crescent on wikipedia.

Agreed, sleepy suburbs and all that. Let's get back into the thick of it, say, Leicester Square.

Sorry StevieG, you can't play Down Street - It's November! (Check Faversham's 1957 rule) You should miss two goes.
Can any of you Darlington boys adjudicate?

Though not from Darlington , I think we can refer here to the adjudication by the IMCCB (International Mornington Crescent Control Board) on the match between C K Gamma Ray and Ferrari Singh-Clarkson, All-India Championship Finals (knock-out stage) 2005.
Ray alleged that to have made such a move, his opponent would have needed to travel by overground services not forming part of the Underground system. In mitigation, Singh claimed that his route was valid as he had used the shortest and fastest route between the two stations. The complaint was upheld. Singh-Clarkson was fined the penalty fare applying at the time and suspended from the competition for 18 months.

'6' thrown. Dammit, now I've been pulled on the carpet by H&S because the dice flew up and hit the umpire on the schnozz. Off to Tower Hill with him.

If it really was your birthday I suppose we can overlook it this once, StevieG, - BUT DON'T DO IT AGAIN.
Now to get everything cooled down and on a sensible footing once more I'm playing Rushton's gambit, but with a left flip,
so.....
Finsbury Park
