Which allows me to invoke the Nautical Challenge and travel - for free, might I add - all the way over to Caledonian Road.

Be careful how you play now - I'm only two turns away from Spoon and six away from winning. There are only three ways of avoiding it, and I'm keeping mum.

Two stops further back and you'd've... but that would be telling.

An obvious trap here would be Borough. It leaves me swinging between two major mainline terminus alternatives but I think I can resolve this with...

Elephant & Castle.

smiley - yikes *splutter* You found it! You jammy little... I mean, congratulations on a sterling play there, sir. *ahem*

Well, after that splendid decision, I'm forced to give up my prized 1927 Injunction Spork and instead make do with the rather tatty 1928 version. It's so gosh darn difficult when you have players of this calibre playing. smiley - applause

Right, on to a move, I suppose. Given the options I can scarely take my original route now as I'll be diverted via Euston Square, of all places. Instead I'll drop my tail and run for the comforting District line shack that is:

Parson's Green.

No, no, do stick with "jammy"... smiley - erm I'm now completely lost as to how you managed that last one, as I was certain you'd go to... oh, no... I think... /sigh/... smiley - erm

Anyway... If I could go to Moorgate right now, I would. But Cannon St is closed in the evenings, Blackfriars still shut... It takes a little doing, this one - but I did have it prepared, I admit.

Edgeware Rd (Bakerloo Line, naturally)

el D is posting from the new Barlesque site (www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2) whereas we're all posting from the original skin (www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2). It means that when he writes an apostrophe, we see the # and numbers. He won't see it though, he just sees a '.

After that piece of cunning I'm running, running like to fox I am to the safety of Elm Park.

Waaaah! smiley - wah
I didn't realise I had an option. I was away for a while and when I returned that was where I ended up. I'm so glad you posted the link back to the place we know and love!

Celebratory...

Pudding Mill Lane!

Yay! I did wonder if you knew. You were about the only person left who was using Barlesque and I didn't know if you knew it wasn't working properly yet. smiley - smooch

Pudding Mill? Yes please! I'll take it all the way to Bow Road!
