Have to say disagree with you there this is clearly quite simple. Therefore I'll go for Canberra.

What is with all this gallivanting across the world? Allow me to take back control with a visit to Heathrow Terminal 5.

This game is still lost in an unknown time zone, maybe we should attempt to put things right?

Cutty Sark, for Maritime Greenwich.

I believe the only way to get out of the unexpected time zone is to restore to the last saved version of the game: Forest Gate.

We’re stuck? Can somebody please work out the way to get this back to where we should be? I can’t quite get it to shift.

I’ll have to summon the Queen - Victoria.

Stovold never envisaged this age-old and illustrious game degenerating into a pub crawl. However Waterloo should provide everything we need

Not falling for the Euston Square trap. Back on the DLR again in case of any problems at Waterloo to Mudchute

I am sorry to be a bore, but footnote 3 to Rule 55 makes it quite clear that you can't stop for tea on a live track without calling first at St James's Park to request permission to plug the kettle in.

Except there is an exception to that rule in the pandemic version - which I remind everyone we are using, there have been some highly questionable moves of late.

With that in mind, I think that this game is heading towards Headstone Lane.

That's a dangerous combination - the increased rest mass and lack of damping runs a high risk of inducing Tannhauser oscillations when entering the London clean air zone. However I am hopeful that a visit to Pudding Mill Lane will enable us to take on sufficient treacle to take care of the problem.

Noooo!! Jettison ballast, maximum boost and hard port on the rudder .... it's no good, we can't avoid it ... Romford
You've played a move that's almost impossible to get out of without playing the controversial 'double Romford' from Pickering's last ruling, so Romford.

My copy of Chasunoble's "Compleat Crescent" tells me that stations beyond Barking are only allowed on alternate Tuesdays in March, but I haven't pasted in the updates since 1952. The tactic he suggests in case of an apparent non-compliance is to go to Chancery Lane and wait for the next No 17 bus.

The Southern Wellie Boot company in which I have shares insist their product is well advertised so therefore I cross the Thames to Bermondsey.

I take Surrey Quays for a visit to the (slightly lesser known than Westfield) Shopping Centre there.

The thaumatic charge buildup is quite perceptible now - we must be nearing the end of things. Beckton is the only place that might survive.
