It's all very conservative play this morning, let's see how you handle some moves with flair.

Arnos Grove.

Baker Street while I still can.
.
TFL

Saturday 2 and Sunday 3 February, no service between Wembley Park, Uxbridge and Northwood and between Baker Street and Aldgate. Rail replacement buses operate.

Bit of bugger, makes a complete mockery of the 'out of bounds' rules, I can hear Mortimer turning in his grave!

Oh bravo, now that's an inspired move!! 😀

So if I apply the Third Rail rule and shake Boris's hand while wearing a Tam O'Shanter I do belive I land at Canary Wharf!!

Good luck getting round that one! 😀

It's 2013, Hells. That sort of play may have worked before the introduction of Boris bikes, but it's now but a hop step and a jump to....

Alderley Edge

Tada!

Oh, no. I hadn't seen that that had been left open. Can I take my move back please. We don't want to hand it to CFH again, do we?

I really want to go to Tottenahm, but the diagonal is blocked from the 2nd row onwards (damn that CFH!), so I can't.
It will, unfortunately, have to be Penge for me too.

Let's sharpen up, kids. Some sloppy play lately; Arnos Grove should get us all back in the zone.

How's this then:
Regent Street, Royal Oak, Kings Cross, Kingsbury! Royal Flush so I get another free go.

Gospel Oak.

Impressive work, but there's an easier way. You can get from Queen's Park to Gospel Oak directly using the Divine Right of Kings rule.

Can anyone get get to Golder's Green?

Yes! There's a replacement bus service on the Northern Line.

Gospel Oak to [b]Golders Green[/b] it is.

I'm really sorry guys, but I can't see anywhere to go apart from Marble Arch. I know that plays right into Cfh's hands but there's nothing else that's open. He's played a blinding game and deserves our respect.

So your missed turn was St. Pancras then?
Hmmm. Not sure what I can do to stop CFH but I'll try Crouch Hill, it may work, definately worth a go!

Posted 11 hours ago # Report-Post


I take it you aren't a player Emsz? It's a little tricky to explain the rules, probably best if you watch a couple of games and see if you can pick it up from that.
.
What's wrong with us all? Those first two game were fast moving and efficient
Too much safety play and not enough attacking in this game. maybe we should use the Hampton Court version next time? Might make it easier for the spectators like Emsz too, this game has been more one for the conisour (sp?)
.
Anyway, it may not stop mrlebowski if no-one can get to Angel but it should open things up and bring the game to a swift conclusion, hopefully in my favour:

Sorry, made myself look a bit of a wally there, got the hampton Court version in my head when I suggested it and then went onto autopilot mode. Must pay attention.
