do you guys think you could keep your eye on the spherical please, we seem to be getting led astray, for a moment i thought we had reverse shafted so far we had ended up in gay pareee.  surely we cant still be at dollis hill???  keef... get us back up onto the kilburn high road will you.  i would make the move myself but i have an articulated up my back end.  and please...keep the geographicals out of it. I'm beginning to think youre just making stuff up now. ::)

Ah ha, nice play Cleo - although one of the shortest games i've been in for a while. After lasts month's AGM of the North Wessex League, i played a singles game against myself in the Shoulder of Mutton in Wantage, it lasted for 1363.2 moves and took 8 3/4 hours to finish, needless to say many Cheeky Vimtos were needed. I was in a right state the next day - of course the heated debate that had ensued earlier about the whole Mrs Trellis saga did'nt help.

Game 2, I assume were playing Albert and Victoria rules, with a increasing gradient ?

If so - forwards we go, a reverse Sidewards Leblanc special to Stockwell, not forgetting filtch. I simple move, yes, but i want a swift half down the pub.

A twelve-pyramid round the houses daisy manoeuvre with a reverse hop and three nips takes us from Stockwell to Kilburn High Road. Ha!

I quite often play blindfold against a stuffed panda called Humphrey in Istanbul. He is a hell of a lush though, and the games are often embarassingly interupted when he insists on singing Welsh rugby songs.
For myself I am an optimist - it does not seem to be much use being anything else.

 ???

Ok then, Kilburn High Road with a reverse left swipe to Swiss Cottage. I believe Julian Clary played this move some time ago...

Katynewbie - you forgot to apply the lateral pass register x 2, so actually its Colindale - easily overlooked of course.

Play on...

Can I undermine that with a triple whirlygig under Sudbury Town? Or will I gyrate around Hangar Lane?

Wouldn't a Fosbury Flirt leave you fluttering faintly at Fairlop?

I think now would be a good time to decide who is going to provide the light refreshment as we approach the half way mark,at a push i could throw to gether a few blackpudding butty's with a side salad and a pint from the Castle Rock Brewery.

Now that's the kind of play that the crowd have come to see.

For a moment then i thought TFL industrial action had been causing a shaft backup at Arsenal, thank the lord for the Metro eh? Lets get on the move - i'm going to play double filch crosspoint slip, with stokes and including a 63% borris correlation factor to Goldhawk Road  ;D I'm of course counting on the result of the Mayoral elections - if im wrong we'll end up in East Putney, without even enough money for a battered sausage, let alone Grey Squirrel Stew and Chips.
