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?

Dear me, some rather daring moves here.

In attempt to get the situation under control, I'm going to try a neat reverse lateral and go for Oval.

Beautifully done, Mooncup. Of course that does allow me to go for Borough.

Oh damn it, missus. I thought for a second you had me cornered there, but just in time I remembered the Heidegger Gambit. So:

Totteridge and Whetstone

Very good! Had to look up Heidegger as I couldn't remember exactly how it worked but you're quite right.

Anyway I can invoke the 1979 Smith & Smith ruling and take a slide to Wood Green

Wood Green is a very crafty move, but I now can go with the obvious - Stanmore.

Oh drat I hadn't seen that.

Still, going to make up for it with a sneaky Humphrey move to Manor House.

Ha! Take that!

Going out on a limb here, sorry if I offend: Marble Arch.

Marble Arch eh? The Cryer-Perkins variation? Haven't seen that used in a while.

Elephant & Castle

Invoking the strategies of Summerskill and Kennedy, I feel it is now pertinent to mention Charing Cross.

ah I love Summerskill, really clever moves she came up with. So to follow your lead I shall say Redbridge

I fancy East Acton.

East Acton, good one. I'm going to pass and forfeit 3 moves. I'm playing the long game...

Arnos Grove

I'm not going to jump into the middle of a game at this time on a Friday night but just dropped in to say how nice to find a streak of rational entertainment extant on MN. Keep up the good work!

Well, spending 30 minutes out of the game while wedged on the Central Line means that my cunning plan is in ruins.... but on the plus side I've had a chance to think out my strategy from first principles. So I give you:

Roding Valley!

Lazy Play indeed! It is the foundation of the game!'

Regardless Arnos Grove leads wonderfully to Slone Square using the little known Minkovsk diagonal...

Regardless Arnos Grove leads wonderfully to Slone Square using the little known Minkovsk diagonal...

It was such a great move I played it twice!

The only response to the Minkovsk diagonal that I know of is the Popov defence so High Barnet it is.

Which must be followed by Holland Park

Oooo, I've got a really good one but its not my turn yet :-(

I'm going to preempt you kippy.

Clocks go back this weekend, therefore the vonstratten clause is void. EPPING!

BOOM.

Great tactics, wooooo.

West Hampstead

A very difficult game with some talented players - feeling a little out of my depth - a safe move to Goodge St
