I've given this some thought and I'm going to chance Dollis Hill.

I used to play in the Dollis Brook when I was a child. So for sentimental reasons I'll play a reverse Hawkins and go Totteridge and Whetstone.

Can't do that under lockdown addendum, but you do get another crack (with a warning). Unless you've previously played Green Park, of course.

I’ve been pondering this for a while, Green Park

This is no game for young or weak at heart I can tell you.

Fierce you lot are - fierce I say!

Bus replacement service to High Barnet.

Would have been quicker walking.

Since any 1980's revision (Stovold's or otherwise) must include O Level Maths, papers 1 AND 2, I'm going to have to use the old 'Oxford and Cambridge' Pythagoras amendment and walk from Oxford Circus to Goodge Street in order to get to Tottenham Court Road; thereby pointlessly walking and using two sides of a triangle to get somewhere there is a direct line.

"Check"

Clever. But overly clever, if you'd taken the tube instead you'd have qualified for a complimentary Day Travelcard.

Anyway. The obvious next move is clearly Wimbledon.

Oh shit, wait, it's a trick! Damn you, I should've seen that before moving.

Oh well. Hopefully no-one will notice.

Ha HA!

Wimbledon

In this weather? Are you mad? The points on the cloverleaf underpass are notorious for shorting in the rain..

Bexley Heath with a veterans travel pass.

Damn, schoolboy error. Well spotted. Clearly not enough revision.
