It's probably worth explaining moves just for the benefit of people who are learning the game. I know that in professional games it's frowned upon
I think there is more than one professional playing here while pretending otherwise. Fine level of play

c'mon then ๐
I'm going to have to shunt to Primrose Square... ๐ฅ
is that your move or a euphemism?
You lot worry about the rules to much, just play the game.
Northfields
yeh, like I'm going down there just before the school run ๐
If a tree falls in a forest, and a mime hears it, do you care?
Blackfriars.
I haven't read the whole game, so as an interluder has anyone commented on the obvious mishtake in the OP headline?
Anyway, I digress, and wonder if the Greathead Shield is one of the sub-rules allowed? In which case
Mark Lane.
Is Kew Park by water-taxi allowed this time of day?
It is between 15:00 & 17:30 which if I remember correctly in the 2nd edition 3rd revision of the Queens rule it was ok as long as you werent wearing a top-hat (I'm not)
Fleet Street, and the south eastern laterals are now closed.
[b]Burnt Oak[/b] to [b]Golders[/b] via the train replacement service.
riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight.
White City.
[b]Kensal Rise[/b]
Richmond, and the south western laterals are closed too. That leaves diagonals and shunting only south of the river.
*gasp*

I knew it was a risk going to Heathrow Terminal 5, I only just got away with that! Right on the riverside ๐

Ealing Common.
LOL! 5pm Thursday ๐
General Wade (5th amendment)
Vauxhall. Don't tell me no-one saw that coming. Especially you Unkle
Acton
Town, obviously.
East Finchley.
NO! West!! I meant West. West Finchley.
That was close.
East Finchley kicks off the compass points.
South Kensington
Not so fast, Flashy. Read Bregante's move again; he's misread my move and incorrectly moved from East Finchley.
He can't go directly to South Kensington from West Finchley off-peak (which is exactly why I corrected myself). The primary ordinals are still closed.

Do we have to take the first answer or is he allowed to change his mind?
Pretty sure its first answer unless we're playing by the Frankhouse deviations, and if we are no-one's mentioned it, I think he gets detained by transport police and misses three goes.
misses three goes
I did. I'm back now though.
Wembley Central. With a twist.
Euston
Mornington Junction.
Its not as close as you might think, look closely & you'll see what Ive done... ๐ ๐ 
Camberwick Green.
Oxford Circus via Pontypandy
Birmingham New Street
It's all very conservative play this morning, let's see how you handle some moves with flair.
Arnos Grove.
Maida Vale
Kentish Town
Old Kent Road, with the little dog.
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!
[b]Holloway Road[/b]
Can I get a witness 8)
Oh bravo, now that's an inspired move!! ๐
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! ๐
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!
Penge.
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?
*Rubs hands impatiently*
Penge.
Now look what you've done. It's a feedback loop.
[b]Penge[/b].
Is there anyone [i]not [/i]in Spoon who can get us out of this?
anonymouse - did you get to Alderley Edge via Macc or Stockport?
I can't decide between Finsbury Park or Paris Charles De Gaulle....
