Time for another game of Mornington Crescent

[tectonicplates]

I'm going to start with High Street Kensington. A classic start, if I do say so myself.

Excellent choice.
Southwark.
Tate Modern, Shakespeares Globe - a more highbrow move!

I’m going to take a risk here and say Borough. Backwards.

A rookie mistake! I am going to implement the reverse caterwaul manoeuvre and play Hainault via Newbury Park

It's an obvious move, but Latimer Road

I’m going to take a risk here and say Borough. Backwards.

So, Hguorob?

Punishingly @EmpressLesbianInChair for violating Rule 261 (use of two successive capital letters of same standing) I'll take Borough lead and say, Arnos Grove

Ooh! Oxford Circus

Hguorob

But that would surely lead to Oolretaw and a potential disqualification under The Victoria Funeral rulings (2nd edition, amended) of 1901?

Quite right @AutumnCrow and well spotted

Punishingly @EmpressLesbianInChair for violating Rule 261 (use of two successive capital letters of same standing)

Which is exactly the reason I called backwards. I was using the Brooke-Taylor variant. I forgot about the Victoria Funeral rulings though.

Easy done @EmpressLesbianInChair

Sorry you were caught

Anyway, I don't think Euston Square is a bad move under the circumstances?

Yes. Well. Parsons Green.

I thought all clerical stations were blocked after 9pm on a Sunday?

Surely it's before 9pm?

9pm where?

It's 9pm North of the Equator and 9am South. Unless it's September.

Ok I rescind Parsons Green and proffer Charing Cross.

Has to be Bond Street then..?

It could be @RomanMum if the precedent set by Walshall v Heston 1987 is anything to go by but I'm not the best historian? Can anyone confirm?

Rules, rules, rules! Bond Street. I insist. And it's my wedding anniversary so that must surely count for something.

@RomanMum are you playing the matrimonial disclaimer, because that requires the permission of two-thirds of the current players who are not involved in any way with the ongoing interpretation of Walshall v Heston 1987 (Tracey Island judgements 2001, section 3, para 19).

I don’t mind permitting that. Although it’s the next day now so it might be a bit late.

This is risk but ideal to explain the game to a beginner, soI beg forgiveness from the veterans.

Grange Hill

I must also beg forgiveness for the typos, my cat tried to help.

'risky' and 'so I'
