Mornington Crescent

[chaz harrison]

I will follow giners lead with a sanctified arboreal play Gospel Oak

You've got me puzzled there, mate. Gospel Oak after Neasden?
...unless.........arrr..... Wainwright's double back! Very tricky!!!!
Still that gives (with a gentle walk to Kentish Town, south along the Northern to...)

Did someone call a timeout or are you all cogitating your next move? As an awakener I will play Chalk Farm.

Errr, Rule 387 (b) iii - Tim [Brook-Taylor]'s Temporary Solstice Suspension? Unless we were all diverted either by our Christmas presents or by 52D's new five word thread? (Loved the idea, but suffered from a lack of reference material... )

Arrgh! I knew I should have logged on earlier.

Under my five word rules lets put all the games to bed till December 2010 after New Years Eve and get back to the LNER. Any comments.

Good Heavens Sir, I do believe you have left the gate wide open. None the less it is with some trepidation that I play Mornington Crescent.

[StevieG]

Is there an echo in here?

[giner]

Where? Where? Where? Where? Where?

I have checked in my Ladybird book ("Your First Mornington Crescent"), and under basic rules (34A - repeat moves) Spamcan you are now in nip, and must miss a turn.

I can't make a play, having finished the last round - Anyone care to kick off with a New Year Gambit? For a bit of fun how about a Jubilee Line stop?

Very well Chaz, prepare to meet your Waterloo...

(Happy New Year to you all by the way.)

Spamcan you are now in nip

If he's in Nip.
Who is in Tuck?

The nearest I can get to TUCK is TUFNELL PK but thats goods so round the corner is

UPPER HOLLOWAY

Please read Fullerton : Book 3 - Mornington Crescent on the internet. Rule 17b covers the matter of cached web pages. This will disallow the second play but the player does not go into nip.

Well, OK. All I can say is that one shouldn't believe everything one reads on the net. Rule 17b hardly applies in such late play, still as it's a new year I will yield.

Now....UPPER HOLLOWAY? Is that a bus stop? It's certainly not on my tube map!

So - reverting to Radstock's Simple I will try...

Highbury & Islington

Should make for some quirky moves!

[Spamcan81]

That's far too close to the home of the Red Plague so I'll quickly shoot off to Seven Sisters.

Not that quirky please Spamcan, your spurs are showing.
From Seven Sisters (rough area) I can employ Jaeger's Switch with a double change to find...

I shall play to the crowd and using Pengar's Principles of Congruence, take us to Arsenal.

You don't think that move is a bit provocative, AP?

(some of you will remember that long pedestrian tunnel on match days - with the fenced off narrow bit for "against the flow" traffic - very crowded)

Now to spare your feelings, Spamcan (your scarf is obviously in the wrong colours), I will employ a Long Diagonal.
