Ugh.... rmph.

Well, one turn in Nid if this white token works. Otherwise...

Well, it's either that or
Covent Garden

Ah, that's a relief.
Oh. And
King's Cross St. Pancras

Which leads neatly on to
Turnpike Lane
as luck would have it.

Tsk, that was not what I was hoping for. However, some retrograde manoeuvring (*flick, flick* yes, that's ... not impossibly improbable) appears to allow a corrective repositioning. Although still not ideal.

Hmm... now that I wasn't expecting.
OK, it'll have to be

Morden
Now, don't be fooled!

Hm. There is an underlying quantum conundrum here. I'm fairly sure the next destination is "... South ..." i.e. contains "South" but, once I've chosen it, I'm equally fairly sure it will be a different one that was the right one...
To which end: Farringdon

Well spotted!
2nd addendum to Stovolds would probably advocate a bi-lateral shift here so here goes....
Alperton

Ah, don't remember the last time I saw that one used. OK, this calls for some radical action.
Chesham
That should do it.

I may have to resort to some exotic permutations of appendices, addenda, interpretations, ad hoc rulings and other misunderstandings to get out of that! Let me see. *rummage through the Book of Thoth...*
Ah yes.
Chiswick Park.

Hmm... risky but effective.
So, how to counter?
Have to use a red token I think.
Mansion House

pljones Posted Nov 11, 2012
Ooh... Hm!
*Silent sketching on back of envelope*
*Much crossing-out and re-sketching*
Um...
Dreadful... You've left me in Nid, it seems. And on a day where my "Get Out of Nid Free" card has a specific exemption.

Oooh, so worth a red token!
OK, so, extra turn ...
Gants Hill

I'll tentatively resume, parrying with a safe as houses
West Brompton

el D – for the sake of brevity and out of respect for my fellow Glums Posted Nov 13, 2012
Ahaa, nothing tentative about that!
So, how to amuse them today.....
Temple

pljones Posted Nov 15, 2012
Ooh. In that case, I think the only option is to raise it to
Moor Park
