No, but I'd like to declare my immunity from any further charges due to the student discount travel card amendment 1999.

What the heck. I'll transfer the momentum with a double switch-over (as first used in the Tottenham Court Road Uprising of '72) and attack with Clapham AND Putney Bridge! Get out of that!!

A Double Plaistow? Nasty. Very nasty. Very, very nasty. 
Hmmm...
I think I'm stuck...
Can I buy a blue counter, place it on Fenchurch Street and try a jump to Cockfosters (bear in mind today is a Leap Day!)?

You can buy a blue counter (another £5 please), and place it on Fenchurch street, sadly as today is a not a leap day - that fails...
So I will go to Kings Cross instead!

AAGGHH!! I've just considered a wild thrash at Mornington Crescent, and found this - http://www.afn.org/~alplatt/tube.html - It's CLOSED!! How could they, in what was to be my moment of glory?? Instead I shall have to play a stalling manoeuvre, and sidle into Camden Town...

The awful truth is this: we are all dead and in hell. This game of MC can never come to an end, just as Sisyphus will never get his stone up to the top of the hill, and the pot of water with the holey bottom will never reach brimful. And my *real* name is Moloch...muah ha ha ha ha ha ha!
