Mornington Crescent

[DerekC]

Time for something floral, I think. Clutterbuck's Guide (1896 edition) is my indispensable companion when in a tricky situation.

Kew Gardens

 

[Failed Unit]

As it is a bank holiday and I have spent too much time in the sun - I find myself at Northwick Park

 

[Ostrich]

My trusty Compass Rule Adjustment Calculator, after spinning three complete revolutions, now points to Hounslow West ....

 

[RDP]

And another spin of the compass takes one to South Kensington.

 

[Ashley Hill]

How about East Ham.

 

[Stathern Jc]

As reared on Chalk Farm ?

 

[RDP]

Such an agricultural move leads us on to Harrow on the Hill.

 

[DerekC]

Brant's Poshness Rule applies to Harrow on the Hill and requires me to play one notch higher up the scale. Hyde Park Corner should do it.

 

[Purple Train]

Lloyd's Bilateral Theorem suggests that Stepney Green is the best move here, owing to the triple conjunction of Mars, Jupiter, and Nigel Farage.

 

[Ashley Hill]

Spinning the games colour chart (not supplied) the arrow keeps pointing to Golders Green.

 

[RDP]

And while the Eco card is being played Green Park.

 

[Failed Unit]

While laying in the park, with the risk of Thunder later today. Rule 16.5 section 2 suggests I should head to nine elms

 

[RDP]

Which leads us on to Covent Garden.

 

[Ashley Hill]

Well Ive just thrown a double six which takes me safely to Mansion House.

 

[Failed Unit]

I feel like I have reached the end of the line. My Grandad used to tell me to go west if the weather is going to turn to the worse. So West Ruislip is a good place go. If I can find a train to take me there? It was much easier in the old days.

 

[Trackman]

Playing En passant on this move, so we go to Aldwych as per rule 77b which states it is permitted.

 

[Failed Unit]

Having double checked my rule book I am going to survey the capital from Elephant & Castle. Hopefully I have interpreted the class of 73 rule book correctly or I could be going back 3 spaces.

 

[RDP]

And with the Ampersand Rule back in play it's off to Totteridge & Whetstone.

 

[Failed Unit]

As I am not allowed to Westminster - the rules state I must meet my Waterloo

 

[RDP]

Using a Bog Standard move takes one to Mudchute.

 

[sftfan1909]

Looks like the reception is low in these parts, therefore having crossed my fingers and toes to ward off unwanted auras we set up the board in Theydon Bois

 

[Ashley Hill]

Rule 50017 states that a move to Royal Oak is permitted.

 

[sftfan1909]

Raising the baton included in last week's game piece set reveals a desire to head to Angel

 

[Failed Unit]

I attempted to be clever and go directly to the promised land. But fell asleep to wake up at High Barnet.

 

[RDP]

From on high we can only fall to Lower Edmonton.

 

[Ashley Hill]

From on high we can only fall to Lower Edmonton.

To where is this Lower Edmonton of which you speak? I fear you may holding a cheap day single to Nidd!

 

[mwmbwls]

And our next round is "One song to the tune of another"? Ainsworth perhaps you could start us of with "Oh my darling, Clementine" to the tune of "Cwm Rhondda"

 

[Purple Train]

This Clementine must pronounce their name in a manner either exceedingly posh or exceedingly Italian. I propose that we take the route back onto the straight and narrow at Canary Wharf.

 

[RDP]

Bringing Bird's Rule back into play puts the cat among the pigeons at Trafalgar Square.

 

[DarloRich]

With purdah ( sorry period of heightened sensitivity) in play we out to leave the Westminster area quickly lest we make any decisions so I suggest:

WEMBERLEE (Park)
