h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I straddle Hammersmith. (ouch)

Oh dear I've got myself in a bit of a mess here.....
umm, oh, damage limitation let me think.....
St Johns Wood?

Ah, but any Aussies will tell you the Ashes belong down at Earl's Court so off we go. Even heavier damage on the Enland physche.

This is impossible, I have only got vowels.
I spend my turn changing all my letters.

I declare that Hatman has a vowel disorder, place him in immediate Vorderman and backpedal to Heathrow Terminal 3. Two orange Smarties(TM) and 62 AOL CDs.

I'll swap Hatman a Q, Z and W and a random constinent for a couple of vowels or which I have none.

Ha Ha! My plan is finally coming off!
By entering Vorderman I have a clear run to Picadilly
(and you know what that means...)

Yup. Damn.

Yeah, with the swith to the Northern Line at Leiscester Square I rush up to Mornington Crescent.

Another game anyone?

Thertainly thir.
I play....oh lets keep the game open shall we? Victoria.

Good choice.

May I enter the proceedings by invoking the popular St. Swithin's Arm manoeuvre at this early stage.. (legal as of the 1989 conference in Sydney)

Queensway.

St Swithins eh? There's a name I haven't heard in a while...

Best back off to avoid a rombustualtion of the central nodes methinks, ummm,Sudbury hill?

I park at Finsbury Park, and declare the Victoria line void.

Hmm.. okay, that said...

Wembley Park via Kings Cross, impending a possible move to the Jubilee line and the opening up of the Western stations.

Though John Faleepnip* advises against it, I'm feeling saucy, and so move onwards to Chalfont and Latimer.

Finsbury Park!

Can I but in? A first time player but I've managed to swipe an old copy of the '83 inverse twostep rules from my brother while he was aslep.

Anyway, to show deference to my lack of experience I choose Richmond.

Cunning - I almost protested at the Victoria line being invalid.. silly me.

Alperton.

I go out of my way to avoid rombustulating the central nodes and what do you do...?(holds up hands in despair) Give me strength.

Errk, this is a minefield, what a mess!
ummm....Maida Vale?

(Tee hee hee ) Finsbury Park!!! You fell into my trap - I invoke the rule of threes, invalidating every third station on a primary coloured line! (Starting from the most Westerly stations, as per the 1903 ruling)
