[ollyrogers]

Is bus travel allowed? Well I'll go for Croxley Green like I was going to before, now I know where my cards can lie... if not, I'll have to wait until if the Croxley Rail Link opens...

We're playing the long game eh? Well in that was, was going to go St Paul's but we'll have to verge on a lateral and say Oval

 

[OxtedL]

I can only look on in bemusement...

 

[ollyrogers]

I can only look on in bemusement...

It's a lonely life in Nidd

 

[Buttsy]

Oval eh? In that case, using the Leveson-Gower flowing drive strategy - LORD'S

 

[RyanB]

Employing the Murray ruling of 2008 I employ a vice-lateral slip-shift to Wimbledon

 

[Buttsy]

That move used to be known as a Henman and you often got penalised with having to go to Southfields as you were a couple short of going all the way...

 

[ollyrogers]

Tentative Mansion House

 

[RyanB]

With that tentative move to Mansion House I shall take us back South of the river to the piece of liquid from across the pond, Canada Water.

 

[Eagle]

An old man from Canada Water
Was taking the train with his daughter
Their journey regressed
At Kentish Town West
As she went back to Nidd like she oughta.

(Limericks are of course valid when one has been stuck in Nidd for over 36 hours, and nidds are similarly valid for those stranded in Limerick.)

 

[ollyrogers]

M... Mo... Mor... Moorgate

 

[RyanB]

Camden Town?

 

[Buttsy]

Using an Overground shunt manoeuvre, I'll call Crystal Palace.

 

[Cherry_Picker]

Ah, the old Gateway to the South gambit! Can only be countered with Balham in my book.

 

[Buttsy]

Hmmmmm, lateral shift move there. I'll have to go Dagenham Heath...no, Dagenham East. Too late on the correction there, b****r, I've put myself in Nidd!!!

 

[RyanB]

Using the 1798 Ytterby rulings and I move us to East Ham.

 

[ollyrogers]

Hmmmmm, lateral shift move there. I'll have to go Dagenham Heath...no, Dagenham East. Too late on the correction there, b****r, I've put myself in Nidd!!!

Oh God... Total wipeout begins again...

Haringey then, yep. Highgate.

 

[passmore]

I shall counter that with the Paul Lewis Money Box gambit of visiting Canary Wharf, by the entrance used by the city bankers only.

 

[Deerfold]

Oh God... Total wipeout begins again...

Haringey then, yep. Highgate.

Woah, calm down - I can see why you're getting excited, but one move at a time!

 

[OxtedL]

Euston

 

[ollyrogers]

He sees the opening... And invokes the Dollis Hill Loop!

Dollis Hill!

 

[Buttsy]

Dollis Hill - Out of Nidd straight into the loop. D'oh!

 

[RyanB]

Watford Junction - damn, got myself locked up in Nidd now.

 

[ollyrogers]

Watford Junction - damn, got myself locked up in Nidd now.

Sorry can we have a justification on how you got out of the loop?

 

[RyanB]

Using the Higgins-Malaszuk de-looping protocol established alongside the International Dibs Protocol in St. Petersburg in 1993

 

[ollyrogers]

Surprised that's been allowed through, very ambiguous rule...

Temple then, I suppose

 

[Buttsy]

The Butler terminal shift puts us at Aldwych

 

[OxtedL]

...Oxford Circus...

 

[ollyrogers]

Ah, Bromley by Bow, could be in if I play wisely.

 

[Deerfold]

Ah, Bromley by Bow, could be in if I play wisely.

I'm going to go ecclesiastical on your ass.

Bow Church

 

[RyanB]

ooo, good move leaves with only one option.
