A little Mornington Crescent - anyone care to join in?

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?

Inspired play there!

Heathrow.
Terminal.

To which the only possible riposte is

Hanger Lane

StayAwayFromTheEdge · 27/10/2013 13:06

I believe the last Sunday in the month allows players to move out of London - (Wooster-Bassett amendment of 1912)

So to honour any Scotish players I suggest - Govan...

StayAwayFromTheEdge · 27/10/2013 13:11

Sorry silly error I clearly meant 1932

TodgerDodger · 27/10/2013 13:30

Quite, stayaway, I nearly had to correct you myself!

Leytonstone.

GillyBillyWilly · 27/10/2013 13:40

Controversial move here but jumping in to say....... MORDEN.

KittyFucker · 27/10/2013 13:44

Aldgate...............wait for it................East.

You weren't expecting that!

KateCroydon · 27/10/2013 13:46

Drat. I was going to say Highgate, but now I can't do better than Pimlico. Am getting rusty.

I will use the Pipkin manoeuvre to Clapham South.

StayAwayFromTheEdge · 27/10/2013 14:17

The Pipkin manoeuvre was very much favoured by Winston Churchill - obvious move is Westminster...

BurberryFucker · 27/10/2013 16:54

mmm.....under the Panhellenic Accord of 1972 that permits me to move directly to Omonia Square....

StayAwayFromTheEdge · 27/10/2013 17:44

That's a very dark move there Burberry - I do hope sabotage isn't at play?

I feel Parsons Green would be appropriate in the circumstances...

Audacious Maud. Audacious and very nearly nidd. I can only respond with Earls Court and hope for the best.

ComeIntoTheGardenMaud · 27/10/2013 22:04

But it would only have been nidd if we had ignored the Burkinshaw Revision of 1987, surely?

Yep that was a bit rash, Maud (I like it!). I'll parry with - and I hope you will agree - Gunnersbury

I have no idea how to play this but I am going for the Cumberbatch sub option. Baker Street.

ComeIntoTheGardenMaud · 27/10/2013 22:13

Ooh, the Cumberbatch sub-option is one of the most exiting of the recent additions to the rules, I think. This time I will play it safe with

St John's Wood

Curioustiger · 27/10/2013 22:17

Swiss cottage!

sapfu · 27/10/2013 22:20

I take your cottage and raise you a mansion.

Mansion House.

Curioustiger · 27/10/2013 22:28

Provocative Sapfu. Maud, I see your game. Brixton...

ComeIntoTheGardenMaud · 27/10/2013 22:38

I'm not going to fall into that trap.
