A little Mornington Crescent - anyone care to join in?

[OverAndAbove]

I just fancy a change of focus.

I'll jump right in with Great Portland Street - I think I'm entitled to do that, with it being beyond the autumn equinox, but before Halloween?

Any takers?

Cross referencing Sassh's Boshida convention with the double cross switch back, and applying the Scandinavian principle of simplicity, I play Stockholm Central. With a side lay to the Arlanda Express, so you can all make it to the airport and back to known lands. Watch for dragons....

Sapfu

Ah, just to honor him today of all days I'm going to invoke the Cressilda-Hawewel paradigm and go for Mile end.
Blessed are the blue.

So, Hainault via Newbury Park, due to the lack of escalators.

Ok, occam's razor strongly suggests that the next move, hopefully to set me up for a chance to win, is Hyde Park Corner.

Blimey charlie, are we still going?

In that case I think I might slip in a little cheeky Wembley Central before bed.

Barkingside seems obvious, no?

Hendon, then. Not Hendon Central, mind... that would be a total rookie error from Barkingside, as any fule kno.

Leafrog to Ealing Broadway (as Aldwych is closed, and bypassing Down Street)

Acton

Acton?
ACTON???
Have you gone collectively insane?
Aldwych is closed, or did nobody see Piglet's move?

Mornington Crescent.

Simple.

I don't know how to play.
If I boldly went in with Monument would I be making an utter arse of myself?

Very disingenuous of you, Maureens

You know very well that starting with Monument in the Diurnal Period (westerly) is a Very Good Idea Indeed.

But I can still invoke the Wilkins Amendment and make things more interesting by playing Bond Street.

Gosh HeadlessLady... have you pipped us all to the post? Are you relying on the Armitage variations? I though they didn't apply in odd-numbered years... does anyone know for sure?

You can apply them to any year if you take into account Sharpe's Affidavit from 2006, remember?

Of course I am a bit weak on post-2000 developments, I must admit. Need to play more often to get myself up to speed.

Congratulations!!!

Jolly well played there.

Thank you all. How kind. [modest]

Shall we continue, though? Technically I made the last move (Bond St), so can't go again.

Tbh I need a rest... it's been quite a ride with all the dramatic twists and turns. Maybe start a new thread in due course, HeadlessLady?

Hats off to Headless!

Well done Headless

what a corker.

Honestly. Lightweights.

PS OP I really hope I didn't completely hijack. Didn't mean to; I just wanted to join in. Sorry if I took over. [guilt]

On the contrary, Headless, we were flagging a bit until you galloped in and revitalised the thread. It has been a pleasure.
