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.

I think you will find that has already been played. We are using Turgdor Court rules are we not?

Tudor - bloody cat again

The cat would probably avoid Chigwell but I cannot and so hasten to Newbury Park.

Turgdor Court rules do not apply in wet weather.

Tudor Court Rules, fourth edition. So that makes a repeat of Grange Hill invalid. Which means we’re back at Camden Town...

Old Kent Road.

Turgdor Court rules do not apply in wet weather

That was the third edition.

I thought it was well established that a misprint had occurred??

I think you’re thinking of the disaster that occurred when the printers of the second edition turned out to have a leaky roof during Storm Humphrey and almost the entire print run came out with large blotches, meaning they had to pulp them and jump straight to the third. The wet weather rule was brought in to commemorate that. They dropped it for the fourth though.

I have heard that the only remaining second edition copy in existence is in the hands of Mrs Trellis.

Old Kent Road? We’re not playing Monopoly.

It’s not raining here so...

Kennington?

Sloane Square

Because I’ve got my collar turned up and Daddy’s bought me a new Porsche. So no rules apply to me.

If Daddy has brought a new Porsche that is so 2015. As for collars turned up, that is just not on when travelling on the Underground, even if you are the Frenchman who had a dispute at the Palace (Crystal one).

Time to go to the place where someone could 'be the ticket man at Fulham Broadway Station', Fulham Broadway

Fulham Broadway?? Pfft. I'm going out on a limb here but cockfosters.

Old Kent Road? We’re not playing Monopoly.

Oh blimey, sorry. Rookie mistake, I was distracted by the history.

Mansion House.

Surely we are ready to rescind the Tudor rule I favour of the Newbury quartet paradox? This negates all moves West.

With this in mind, Bank

There's a high risk of Nidd here, especially given it's the first of the month, so I will play safe with a spiral widdershins to

Embankment

Wow. Just, wow.

Leicester Square.

Bloody hell @BettySwoll0cks talk about putting a spanner in the works!

Ok then, if that's how we're going it can't be anything else but-

Russell Square.

As an aside, (I claim "ex workers rights appendix 4.02) Used to work at that station and on 7/7 the workers at Leicester Square station ran to Russell Square stopping at GOSH to pick up stretchers to assist the wounded. I was off sick that day and the thought that I could have A. Died or B. Been of good use will haunt me forever. Even the cleaners helped and the little tiny supermarket across the road provided help and water/supplies. Now, no dwelling on this, back to the game ok?)

Cockfosters is the only option although I invoke the lesser known Versailles treaty of 1956 chapter 8,paragraph 36 appendix 49 which clearly states that situations due to ideological responses are always void.

Sorry, Turgdor Rules (it is raining here), we've already had Cockfosters - even though it wasn't capitalised, it still had quiddity, according to the Greek Nitpicking debacle of 1987.

So we're still at Russell Square.

I'm which case Seven Sisters. Which puts the next player in Spoon.

Right, this is the big one. I'm invoking the Victoria line prerogative which, alongside the Picadilly inference, gives me triple points and Mornington Crescent in five.

And with that: Osterley.

Which, as I will have no need to remind you, means SW postcodes are wild.

Ah Osterley, magnificent, lofty, completely illegal on the first Wednesday of October according to the timber convention, first in use in 1989. I live to strike and proceed for-with to Acton Town

Hang on @coffeeagogo does that mean that Morton's Convention is in play? If that's the case, then the only logical move is Balham.

Balham? Magnificent move but you have left an opening for Euston Square

I am surprised at the night time Tube rule being played in the small hours of a Thursday.

So it is time for a short move to Kings Cross St Pancras
