I dread the person who has to tally back all the way to Dinting, being the end of the leg!!

 

[Esker-pades]

[Only two GC trains a day in either direction - what counts here??]

From the rules:

Bonus points are added to the tally for a 'long wait' if there are less than three trains a day that make your journey (2 points), or if a move is deemed to made by a 'parliamentary' service (5 points).

I dread the person who has to tally back all the way to Dinting, being the end of the leg!!

This really isn't a long leg in the scheme of things. Also, why would you dread the person?

Apologies to all other quiz contributors.... I am using my wife's old Toshiba laptop whilst the house move is in progress. I don't normally have to strike-through postings to the extent that I have done today....
