    Chalfont,but not Latimer.

    Goes without saying. A Gentleman would never use Latimer in a game of MC.

    St John’s Wood. And I invoke the aptly-named, but rarely-used these days – General Wade (fourth in line after the 1928 uprising). Unklehomer .. ?

    And that’s your mistake. Gentlemanly conduct has no place in Mornington Crescent when properly played. The only reason I avoided Latimer with my last move was so that I can play it now and thereby shunt you out to Zone 6.

    Take that, Sir.

    Anyone know the forecast for the Isle of Dogs later in the week? Just planning ahead, you know with DLR weekend schedules and all.

    Edit: preferably for Millwall Outer Dock, not Inner. You’d be a fool to want Inner, especially with the Shard where it is nowadays.

    Rain I believe.

    I would say that Mudchute would be your station of choice here, if I hadn’t just alighted there.

    Tooting being a communist borough I don’t think anyone there would get a taxi, only public transport. Therefore as all taxi journeys go via Mornington Crescent, Pook cannot have been in a taxi, or therefore at Mornington Crecent.

    I was on a bike. That should have been academic.

    The taxi was Addison Lee, you were knocked off your bike.

    In that case I shall continue with a deft counter-clockwise manoeuvre (with a hop, skip and a jump to get past Liverpool Street) to Leyton, also catching Flashy unawares and placing him in Nidd.

    Check.

    Just been mentioned on BBC, the GB ladies curling team are following this thread with interest:
    Apparantly Eve never thought a minority sport like this could be so interesting and tactical.

    Chalfont – sans latimer – is zone 8. So the zonal subfunction allows me to jump to Hainault – via Newbury park

    Deft.

    Using this lull in activity to my advantage, I’ll take the long leap to Chalk Farm (avoiding Gospel Oak).

    in which case I shall alight at Pimlico wearing brown shoes, jacket and jeans (as I know how much CFH likes that look in town).

    In which case I shall conduct a doppleganger defensive manouver and also alight at Pimlico wearing brown shoes, jacket and jeans (as I know how much CFH likes that look in town). Thus confusing Flashy and prolonging his stay in Nidd.

    In which case I shall invoke the wrath of the 1897 Pencil Sharpener Armistice and change out of my brown shoes, jacket and jeans while on the platform at Sloane Square, in the full knowledge I may scare the locals.

    In Sloane Square? I doubt you can scare anyone there, they’ve seen it all!

    Anyway, Knight to Kings 4 via Bethnal Green

    Sorry, I’ve just realized a mahoosive typo. I should have put ’65 main rules.

    Pook won it 3 days ago.

    Pook won it 3 days ago.

    and very unsporting it was too….

    Amateurs.

    Anyway, I’ve just been on the bummel with Samantha, quick spin to Hurstwood.
    She loves it up the berms.

    Sadly, she punctured both tyres on one run, but we sorted it out;
    She whipped them off with ther bare hands and I was pumping away in in no time at all.

    It was not unsporting. How very dare you. I clearly deployed the Cousteau Inflection as is stated at the very top of all post-flood rule books.

    It was elementary.

    I’m not convinced.

    I believe there’s a breach of the 1972 Wales/Andorra Barry Island Peace Treaty.

    Tenuous, but it’s definitely arguable.

    It has history. But that shouldn’t detract from the fact it’s a 10 pointer station.
